The exercise, which commenced on 9th March 2026, is being conducted in two distinct phases: Physical screening handled by the Police Team and credentials screening conducted by the Police Service Commission (PSC) Team. A team from the Police Service Commission led by Alhaji Ibrahim Maikudi is fully on ground and working collaboratively with the Police Team to ensure strict adherence to the laid-down guidelines.
The entire process continues to uphold the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, and transparency. Today’s proceedings, 11th April 2026, are ongoing smoothly as scheduled, with candidates being processed in an orderly and efficient manner.
The head of the Police Recruitment Team, DCP Habibu Rabiu, commended officers deployed for the exercise for their dedication, discipline, and professionalism. He stressed the need for sustained commitment to ensure the process remains fair, credible, and free from any form of malpractice.
DCP Rabiu also reiterated the message of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, psc(+), NPM, that the recruitment process is entirely free of charge. He strongly warned candidates and members of the public to beware of scammers, impostors, and criminal elements who may attempt to extort money or promise undue favors in exchange for recruitment slots.
The Kano State Police Command assures all applicants and the general public of a transparent and credible exercise. Adequate security measures remain in place at the screening venue to guarantee the safety of candidates, officials, and the public.
The Command appreciates the cooperation of candidates and urges them to continue to conduct themselves peacefully while adhering strictly to all guidelines issued by the recruitment team.
