The Police Service Commission has announced the commencement of a nationwide recruitment exercise for 50,000 Constables into the Nigeria Police Force, as part of a major initiative to strengthen community policing and enhance internal security across the country.
In a public announcement issued on Monday, the Sokoto State Police Command disclosed that the online application portal opened today, December 15, 2025, in line with a Presidential directive aimed at expanding the manpower base of the Force.
The recruitment exercise, the Commission stressed, is entirely free of charge, and applicants are advised to avoid unauthorised individuals or websites.
According to the statement, prospective candidates must be Nigerian citizens by birth, possess a valid National Identification Number (NIN), and be medically, physically and psychologically fit.
“Applicants must also be free from any criminal conviction or financial embarrassment and meet all other requirements outlined on the official recruitment portal.
“The recruitment covers two cadres: General Duty and Specialists. For the General Duty cadre, applicants must be between 18 and 25 years, possess a minimum of five credits in WAEC, SSCE or NECO (in not more than two sittings), including English Language and Mathematics, and meet the required height of 1.67 metres for males and 1.64 metres for females.
“Specialists, on the other hand, must be between 18 and 28 years, have at least four relevant credits, and possess recognised qualifications or trade test certificates with a minimum of three years’ practical experience in fields such as medical services, ICT, engineering, driving and motor mechanics,” the statement said.
The PSC noted that the application portal will remain open for six weeks, closing at 11:59 pm on Sunday, January 25, 2026.
Interested and qualified candidates are to apply exclusively through the official portal at npfapplication.psc.gov.ng, as multiple applications or attempts to influence the process will result in immediate disqualification.
The Sokoto State Police Command urged eligible Nigerians to take advantage of the opportunity to serve the nation and contribute to improved security, assuring that the recruitment process will be transparent and merit-based.
