National Police Spokesperson James Kadadzera sad this in a press statement made available to Face of Malawi.

According to Kadadzera the said vacancy circulation on Social media platforms s not true.

“The Malawi Police Service would like to bring to the attention of Malawians and prospective applicants in particular that the police recruitment vacancy is not yet out,” Kadadzera said.

He further added that the vacancy announcement making rounds on social media should be disregarded as it is fake adding that it is an old vacancy.

“It is an old vacancy announcement and the one who uploaded it on social media has tactfully deleted the closing date of receiving application letters,” he added.

He added; “A fresh vacancy will be released soon and the general public will be notified through radio, TV and newspapers.”
