CDCFIB ANNOUNCES NEXT STAGE OF 2024/2025 RECRUITMENT EXERCISE

[Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo @BTOofficial]

At the meeting of the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) today, we made far-reaching decisions to improve career progress and welfare of personnel across our paramilitary agencies.

In a historic step to boost morale and recognize meritorious service, the Board approved the promotion of over 27,000 officers across our four services. To further support our workforce, we validated a comprehensive healthcare policy framework designed to promote the health, fitness, and overall well-being of all officers and men.

On recruitment, we reaffirmed the Federal Government’s commitment to enlist 120,000 young Nigerians into our paramilitary services over our first tenure. The process for the first tranche of 30,000 candidates has advanced, with the portal opening from 28th October to 13th November 2026 for those who have reached the oral interview stage.

Apparently, with this latest exercise, total promotions across the paramilitary agencies under the Ministry of Interior since His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR assumed office now stand at well over 100,000 officers. This comprises over 32,000 officers promoted in 2023, over 20,000 in 2024, more than 24,000 in 2025, and the just concluded over 27,000 approved today in 2026.

In the Ministry of Interior, this sustained record reflects the Renewed Hope Agenda’s unwavering commitment to ending career stagnation and building a well-motivated, disciplined, and fit workforce capable of discharging its constitutional responsibilities effectively.
