More than 300,000
applications were received for the 750 positions recently advertised by the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Osita Nwaja, the
commission’s director of public affairs, announced the figures in Enugu when he
visited the zonal office of NAN.
Nwaja said the
recruitment was segmented, the first phase of the exercise ending on June
26.
“We had more than 300,000
applicants that applied for the 750 positions, which are in three cadres:
junior, middle and senior,” he said.
“We are considering a
whole lot of junior staff so that they will grow in the system. The
criteria were well spelled out and those that met them wrote the examination.”
Nwaja said by the
recruitment, EFCC had moved to fortify its ranks in view of the onerous task of
fighting corruption.
“The fight against
corruption is fundamental to everything we do in this country. It is a fight we
cannot afford to lose,” he said.
