Job seekers across Nigeria can now breathe a sigh of relief as the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board has finally announced a new date for its long-awaited recruitment portal launch.
After weeks of suspense and growing anxiety, the Board declared that the portal, originally scheduled to open on June 26, will now officially go live on Monday July 14, 2025.
The fresh date, confirmed in a public notice signed by the Secretary to the Board, comes as a major development for thousands of hopeful Nigerians eyeing federal jobs in Civil Defence, Immigration, Correctional Service, and the Fire Service.
This is not just another job alert, it’s a golden opportunity for qualified applicants to join Nigeria’s elite uniformed forces. The official website to apply, as released by the Board, is recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng, and it will be the only legitimate gateway into the recruitment process.
Importantly, the government has made it crystal clear: the application is 100 percent free. No one should pay a kobo to anyone. Fraudsters and middlemen looking to cash in on this opportunity are already being warned, stay away!
“All applications are free and do not attract any payment,” the Board emphasized in bold letters, urging citizens to report any suspicious offers or individuals demanding money.
The sudden shift in date may have caused a ripple of disappointment at first, but officials say the move was necessary to ensure a smooth and credible process. The Board has apologized for any inconvenience and assured Nigerians that the new date is set in stone.
Aspiring applicants are strongly advised to start putting their documents together, dust off their credentials, and get ready to storm the official portal once it opens. The rush is expected to be massive, and any delay could mean missing out.
