The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has announced a recruitment exercise for qualified Nigerians.
The anti-drug agency made the call in a statement issued on Friday via its Twitter handle.
The application will run from March 12 to April 8 and graduates of secondary school, polytechnic, and university are invited to apply.
Applicants must be of Nigerian origin by birth and possess a national identity number (NIN) while computer literacy will be an added advantage for all cadres, the statement said.
Applicants are also required to tender all certificates at the time of recruitment as any other qualification presented subsequently will not be valid for career progression in the agency.
The statement added that applicants must be medically fit and must produce a certificate of medical fitness from a government hospital.
Candidates applying for the role of “superintendent cadre” must not be less than 20 years or more than 35 years while the age limit for “narcotic agent cadre” and “narcotic assistant cadre” is 30 years and not less than 18 years at the point of entry.
The statement, however, noted that persons over 40 years applying for the role of “medical doctors” and “articulated vehicle drivers” will be considered.
“Medical and allied professionals must possess current practicing licenses while lawyers must have been called to bar,” the statement reads.
“Applicants must be drug-free and also be of good character and must not have been convicted of any criminal offense.
“Applicants must use their personal email address and phone numbers when submitting their applications online.”
