The Nigeria Police Force has dismissed a social media publication directing prospective Police Constable recruits to report for training on September 18, 2026.
The Force, in a disclaimer posted on its X handle on Wednesday, said the publication was not an official communication and urged prospective recruits to disregard it.
“The Nigeria Police Force has observed a publication circulating on social media purportedly emanating from the Force, directing prospective Police Constable recruits to report for training on 18th September 2026.
“The Nigeria Police Force wishes to state that the said publication is not an official communication of the Force and should be disregarded,” the statement said.
The forged letter, dated 1 September 2026, mimics official police stationery and reportedly lists required personal items such as white canvass shoes and bedding for the supposed training at various state headquarters.
