He urged all applicants to follow the official instructions provided on the website and ignore any messages or announcements from unofficial sources or third-party platforms.

The exercise, which covers recruitment into the four paramilitary agencies under the Board’s supervision, is part of the Federal Government’s efforts to enhance national security and strengthen public safety across the country.
