According to the Federal Ministry of Interior, hiring will begin on Monday, July 14 for four significant paramilitary organizations.
The Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS), Nigeria Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC), Nigeria Fire Service (NFS), and Nigerian Correctional Service (NCS) are all involved in the exercise, according to a statement released by the ministry over the weekend.
This most recent hiring campaign comes after the Federal Government announced in June that it would hire 30,000 new employees for the four paramilitary forces in the country.
