Police Service Commission has approved a two-week extension of the ongoing recruitment for 50,000 Police Constables.
The application portal, which opened on 15th December 2025, will now close on 8th February 2026.
The extension follows the receipt of over 400,000 applications nationwide and a review that shows significant disparities in the level of participation across states.
While states such as Adamawa, Benue and Kaduna recorded high numbers of applicants, others including Lagos, Ogun, Bayelsa, Ebonyi and Anambra showed comparatively low application figures.
Police Service Commission, in a statement issued yesterday in Abuja by the Head, Protocol and Public Affairs, Torty Njoku Kalu says the decision to extend the deadline is aimed at ensuring equitable representation from all states of the federation.
