Ebere Amaraizu, public relations officer of the police in Enugu state, says people with tattoos on their bodies have no chance of being recruited into the force. 

Amaraizu said tattoos will automatically disqualify a candidate from the nationwide police recruitment exercise.

He said procedures for the screening had been put in place by the authorities and that those who were shortlisted for the interview had received e-mails of their success.

The present recruitment is for degree holders and will last for three weeks and after that, the selected ones will proceed for the written interview.

“Over aged people, tattooed persons, falsified results, statement of results over five years and people with some physical impediments will be disqualified from the exercise,” he said.

Amaraizu said 10,000 people will be recruited nationwide.

“All I know is that 10,000 people will be recruited nationwide but I do not know the number of those that will be recruited in Enugu zone,”he said.

“We have started and you can see that it is going on peacefully.”

“This command will screen the applicants thoroughly to ensure that the best get the job.”
