The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, has warned applicants undergoing recruitment into four agencies under the Ministry of Interior against making payments for the mandatory Drug Integrity Test, DIT.
The agency, in a statement by its Director, Media and Advocacy, Femi Babafemi, on Friday, said the Ministry of Interior had already made bulk payment to cover the testing of new intakes into the Nigerian Correctional Service, Nigeria Immigration Service, Federal Fire Service and Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps.
It therefore urged candidates and personnel participating in the exercise not to pay NDLEA officials, testing centres or any other individual or platform for the test.
The NDLEA said arrangements had been concluded for the exercise as part of the recruitment process, adding that candidates would be able to access the Drug Integrity Test portal through designated links or access points provided on their respective institutional portals.
According to the agency, candidates are required to use the platform to complete their registration and documentation before proceeding with the testing without making any additional payment.
The NDLEA advised all participating agencies and personnel to comply with the procedure to ensure a smooth and orderly exercise.
The agency thanked the Ministry of Interior for its cooperation, saying it remained committed to ensuring a transparent and efficient implementation of the Drug Integrity Test.
