CDCFIB Recruitment Delays Leave NSCDC, NIS, FFS Applicants Frustrated

Twenty-eight days after the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) promised to conclude its recruitment exercise, applicants for the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), and Federal Fire Service (FFS) are still awaiting their fate. Applicants, including Moshood Jumoke Olasola, have expressed disappointment over the delays, accusing the CDCFIB of failing to honor its commitment made in August to finalize the process within four weeks.

Olasola highlighted the financial burdens incurred from repeated trips for documentation and screening, leading to debt among applicants. Another applicant, Ginini Gift, noted that the prolonged delay has made candidates vulnerable to fraudsters.

The applicants are calling for an official update from the CDCFIB regarding the recruitment process and are urging caution against individuals demanding money for recruitment assistance.
