Paramilitary Recruitment: FG Extends Application Deadline by One Week

The Federal Government of Nigeria has announced an extension to the ongoing paramilitary recruitment application process under the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB). The initial deadline of August 4, 2025, has now been extended by one week, with the new deadline set for Monday, August 11, 2025.
