NPF Recruitment process has been extended to Saturday, January 22, 2022, from the initial year, in a bid to allow all qualified registrants to participate in the registration.
It was gathered that the NigerianPolice Recruitment Portal, with this extension, will remain open till midnight of the new date.
According to the authorities, the extension of the online application is informed by the need to ensure equal opportunity and even spread of applications, particularly from States in the South-East, South-South geopolitical zones and Lagos State, to enable them to meet up with the required quota for their respective areas.

Also, statistical analysis shows that 81,005 applications were received nationwide as of January 7, 2022. Out of this figure, only 1,404 applications – less than 2% of the total applications – were received from the five states in the South East and 261 from Lagos State, with Anambra State having the most diminutive figure 158 applicants.
Hence, the Force enjoins States and Local Governments, religious bodies and other interest groups in the affected Geopolitical zones and Lagos State to assist in mobilizing and encouraging their citizens and wards to take advantage of the opportunity to seek a career path in the Nigeria Police Force.
