He emphasized that the exercise, which commenced on March 9, 2026, is entirely free, transparent, and based solely on qualifications and merit.
A statement signed on Tuesday by ASP Eitokpah Sunday Akata, the Command’s PRO, urged applicants to report any individual or group attempting fraud or soliciting money related to the exercise via the Police Complaint Response Unit at 08134096900.
The Commissioner also received members of the 2025/2026 Police Constable Recruitment Screening Team, led by Deputy Commissioner of Police, Victor Bekep, and charged them to conduct the exercise with diligence, professionalism, and transparency.
CP Afegbua assured the team that the Command, in collaboration with the Cross River State Government, would provide all necessary support to ensure the process runs smoothly.
Meanwhile, DCP Bekep reminded applicants to remain disciplined and orderly throughout the exercise, stressing that the screening process is strictly merit-based and only candidates meeting the stipulated requirements will proceed to the next stage.

APC Fires Back at Adeleke Over ₦300bn LG Funds Allegation, Blames Governor for Salary Crisis....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
The Osun State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has responded to claims by Governor Ademola Adeleke that local government officials under the party diverted about ₦300 billion meant for workers’ salaries.
Adeleke had made the allegation during a stakeholders’ meeting, accusing APC-controlled council officials of hijacking funds and forcing the state government to shoulder salary payments for local government workers, teachers, health staff, and pensioners for over a year.
He insisted he would not abandon workers, blaming the situation for delays in executing some state projects.
But in a statement, APC’s Director of Media and Information, Kola Olabisi, dismissed the claims, accusing the governor of misleading the public and shifting blame.
The party alleged that Adeleke was responsible for the salary issues, claiming he refused to release electronic payment vouchers and other financial documents needed for processing payments.
APC also said pension-related records, leave bonuses, cooperative deductions, and other financial data had not been made available despite repeated appeals, insisting that funds were properly accounted for and available for use if approved.
The party urged pensioners and workers to seek clarification, insisting the situation could be resolved if the governor allowed due process to take place.
