Issue of recruitment is becoming unbecoming because i’m tired of buying scratch card, it is noticed that before band of recruitment is being lifted the top officers hav already recruit their people with about 97% leaving the 3% for the public, u can imagine the percentage left for the public. Let them change from this maniac form of life , this is corruption.

In police also we have done it but the same problem without even interview, the IG come out and said na political error, which kind political error is new system of corruption thats why we are always back without improvement.
