NDLEA Confirms No Fees for Drug Integrity Test in Recruitment

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has issued a warning to applicants undergoing recruitment into four agencies under the Ministry of Interior, stating that they should not make any payments for the mandatory Drug Integrity Test (DIT). The agency clarified that the Ministry of Interior has already made bulk payments to cover the testing for new intakes into the Nigerian Correctional Service, Nigeria Immigration Service, Federal Fire Service, and Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps.

In a statement released on Friday in Abuja by Femi Babafemi, the Director of Media and Advocacy, the NDLEA emphasized that no candidate or personnel would be required to pay for the test. The agency advised all participating agencies and their personnel against making payments to NDLEA officials or testing centers.

Arrangements for the test have been finalized, and candidates will access the NDLEA Drug Integrity Test portal through designated links provided on the respective institutional portals, completing necessary registration before proceeding for the test.
