The statement also mentioned that vacancies for recruitment were open to both young men and women from Ebonyi State.

The state’s commander expressed appreciation on behalf of the NHFSS leadership to Governor Nwifuru for approval. He emphasised that the state government has confidence in the NHFSS’s ability to address the country’s insecurity effectively.
