CDCFIB recruitments: FG shortlists candidates for NSCDC, immigration, fire service CBT

The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire, and Immigration Services Board has announced the release of the shortlist of candidates set to participate in the upcoming computer-based test (CBT) for recruitment into Nigeria’s paramilitary agencies.

The development was disclosed in Abuja on Wednesday by the Board’s Secretary, retired Maj.-Gen. Abdulmalik Jubril, who confirmed that the list has been officially published for public access.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the agencies are the Nigerian Correctional Service, the Nigeria Immigration Service, Federal Fire Service, and Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps.

The statement urged candidates who applied for recruitment into any of the four paramilitary agencies to visit its official recruitment portal at https://recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng from Thursday to check if they had been shortlisted.

“From Thursday, October 30, 2025, candidates are to check if they have been shortlisted for the next stage of the exercise, as well as centres for the Computer-Based Test (CBT).

“Shortlisted candidates are further requested to take note of the venue, date, as well as time scheduled for the CBT,” he said.

The statement enjoined applicants to take note of the correct portal address highlighted to avoid being scammed.

Recall that in August at least 1,911,141 Nigerians applied for the Board recruitment exercise as of when the application portal closed on Monday, August 11.
