The governor of Abia State, Alex Otti, has voiced his disappointment with the state’s youngsters’ lacklustre response to the ongoing police recruiting drive.
According to Anaedoonline.ng, the Governor stated that 700 applicants who were invited for interviews in order to be considered for recruitment into the Nigeria Police Force did not show up in a statement released by Commissioner for Information and Culture, Okey Kanu.
As a result, the governor gave the order for all mayors of local governments, presidents-general of town unions, chairmen of traditional rulers’ councils and their members in every LGA, and community leaders to promptly organise their youths for the activity.

The statement also encouraged all invited candidates who, for whatever reason, were unable to attend the recruiting process to get in touch with the Office of the Commissioner for Information and Culture for further clarifications.
The statement reads, “Regrettably, about 700 candidates invited for interview in the ongoing recruitment exercise are yet to show up.
“To this end, the Governor of Abia State, Dr Alex Otti, has directed all local government Mayors, Chairmen of traditional rulers Councils and their members in all the LGAs, Presidents-general of town unions, and community leaders to immediately mobilize their youths for this very important exercise to ensure that the state’s quota is filled.
“The Governor further directed all those who have been invited for the interview as a matter of urgency, to appear for the exercise.
