The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has released the names of candidates shortlisted for the computer-based test (CBT) for the paramilitary agencies’ recruitment.

This is contained in a statement by the secretary to the board, retired Maj.-Gen. Abdulmalik Jubril, on Wednesday in Abuja.

The agencies are the Nigerian Correctional Service, the Nigeria Immigration Service, the Federal Fire Service and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps.

The statement urged candidates who applied for recruitment into any of the four paramilitary agencies to visit the official recruitment portal at https://recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng from Thursday to check if they had been shortlisted.

“From Thursday, October 30, 2025, candidates are to check if they have been shortlisted for the next stage of the exercise, as well as centres for the Computer-Based Test (CBT).

“Shortlisted candidates are further requested to take note of the venue, date, as well as time scheduled for the CBT,” he said.

The statement enjoined applicants to take note of the correct portal address highlighted to avoid being scammed.
