The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has announced the release of names of candidates shortlisted for the Computer-Based Test (CBT) in the ongoing recruitment exercise across Nigeria’s paramilitary agencies.
According to a statement issued on Wednesday in Abuja by the Secretary to the Board, retired Maj.-Gen. Abdulmalik Jubril, the shortlisted candidates include applicants for the Nigerian Correctional Service, the Nigeria Immigration Service, the Federal Fire Service, and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps.
Maj.-Gen. Jubril advised all applicants to visit the official recruitment portal, https://recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng, from Thursday, October 30, 2025, to confirm their status and access details of the next stage.
“Candidates are to check if they have been shortlisted for the next stage of the exercise, as well as the centres for the Computer-Based Test (CBT),” the statement read.
He added that successful applicants should carefully note the venue, date, and time scheduled for their CBT to avoid missing the opportunity.
The Board also cautioned candidates to use only the official portal and to beware of fake websites or individuals claiming to influence the process.
“The public is urged to take note of the correct portal address to avoid being scammed,” the statement concluded.
The CDCFIB had earlier announced that the recruitment exercise would be transparent and merit-based, assuring Nigerians that only qualified candidates would proceed to the next stage.
