The Commandant General of the Corps, Dr Ahmed Abubakar Audi revealed this at a news conference Friday at the Corps Headquarters in Abuja.
Audi who was represented by the Secretary and Director of the Civil Defence, Fire, Immigration and Correctional Services Board, Mrs Aisha Rufai regretted that though the exercise started in 2019 several factors, chiefly the COVID-19 pandemic stalled its conclusion.
He shed more light about the recruitment process which led to the final figure of shortlisted candidates, the CG said;
“We, therefore, wish to implore all candidates who sat for the CBT, that is 6,500 who have been invited for the physical screening that the final screening of credentials and physical fitness test will be via SMS from 2nd to 25th of August 2021. Applicants are invited to check the application portal from July 20 2021 for their names, screening location, guidelines and to print out their recruitment slip without which they won’t be allowed for the screening”.
He stated that six centres have been designated for the exercise and a spread across the six geo-political zones. He listed them as the NSCDC Zonal Command Headquarters Kaduna, Games Village in Bauchi, Federal University Lafia in Nasarawa state, NSCDC Training School in Oji River, Enugu State, Civil Defence College of Security Management in Abeokuta, and NABTEB in Benin, Edo state.
According to him, the Corps worked in concert with the Federal Character Commission FCC to ensure strict adherence to the federal character principles.
On her part, Mrs Rufai quoted the Minister of Interior and Chairman of the board, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola as declaring the entire process free.
“Anybody found trying to induce some financial gratification will be dealt with and that only invited candidates should go to the centres”, she stated.
She warned applicants who were not shortlisted not to be seen in any of the centres.
