The Police Service Commission has scored the just-concluded police constable recruitment aptitude test high.
The test which held nationwide on Friday and Saturday, is one of the requirements for the completion of the 2020 recruitment.
The Chairman of the Commission, Musiliu Smith, a retired Inspector-General of Police, who visited some of the South-Western states, expressed satisfaction with the turnout of the applicants and the conduct of the exercise.
Smith, who visited Lagos and Abeokuta, Ogun State, said the exercise was generally hitch-free and commendable.

He commended the commission’s staff for their patriotism and commitment to the exercise.
