More than 191,000 job applicants are being tested today by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) to fill 9,460 vacancies in the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC).
Secretary of the Civil Defense, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board, Yakmut Alhassan Saleh, said the computer-based exam is taking place simultaneously in 126 centers across Nigeria’s 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
He said, “All over the country, we have almost 190,000 candidates out of which 113,000 are Civil Defence, and 78,000 for Immigration. The examination is broken into three phases; we have the one for graduates and HND, NCE and OND and the third one for secondary school (leavers)”.
The examination, according to him, was being conducted by JAMB to ensure transparency and avoid rancor and confusion that trailed a similar exercise a few years ago.
