August 3, 2025 – The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has officially extended the closing date for its ongoing paramilitary recruitment exercise.
In a press release issued by the Office of the Secretary on 3rd August 2025, the Board announced that the recruitment portal will now remain open until Monday, 11th August 2025, instead of the earlier deadline of 4th August 2025.
“The Board wishes to notify the general public that the closing date for application for its ongoing recruitment exercise has been extended by one (1) week,” the statement said.
This update gives more time for interested applicants seeking careers in civil defence, correctional services, fire service, or immigration service to complete their applications. The extension aims to create an equal opportunity for all eligible candidates and ensure no one is left behind due to time constraints.
The Board also reminded applicants that “the authentic portal address remains htpps://recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng.”
It further emphasized that the application process is entirely free.
“The Board wishes to reiterate that its recruitment process is free of charge as well as remains committed to ensuring a fair and transparent process,” signed by A M Jibril, Maj. Gen (Rtd), Secretary to the Board.
