By Chukwunonso Eric, Warri.
The Delta State Government has again called on all qualified candidates who applied for recruitment into the Nigerian Police Force to immediately report for the ongoing physical and credential screening exercise currently taking place in Asaba.
The Director General of the Delta State Bureau for Orientation and Communications, Dr. (Barr.) Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe, made the call in a statement on Sunday, saying the Police Service Commission team and Recruitment Officers will attend to candidates from Monday 16 March to second week in April.
He explained that the screening exercise, which is being conducted by the Police Service Commission (PSC) in collaboration with the Nigerian Police Force (NPF), represents a critical stage in the ongoing nationwide recruitment process into the Force.
Dr. Oghenesivbe disclosed that the exercise is specifically for candidates who received invitation letters indicating their screening centres and scheduled dates, those who missed their previously scheduled screening appointments, applicants who printed their application forms after completing the online registration, as well as candidates who received invitation letters but were not assigned screening centres.
He urged candidates who fall within these categories to immediately present themselves for screening at the Delta State Police Command Headquarters, Okpanam Road, Asaba beginning from Monday 16th March 2026, noting that the exercise provides a vital opportunity for qualified applicants to complete the recruitment process and move closer to their aspiration of serving the nation through the Nigerian Police Force.
The Bureau Director General further advised candidates to attend the screening with all relevant documents and credentials for proper verification. For further enquiries, candidates may contact the designated police officer, DCP Rita Emesim, on 08077228516 or Barrister Anthonnette, Public Service Commission.

Dr. Oghenesivbe, however, clarified that candidates who have already been screened should kindly disregard the announcement.
He reaffirmed the Delta State Government’s commitment to supporting federal institutions in ensuring a transparent, credible, and successful recruitment process, adding that the exercise is in tandem with the job and wealth creation initiative of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori encapsulated in his MORE Agenda.
