As Spaces for Change.S4C continues to assist with the preparation of some of the court processes, it becomes clearer that the NIS aptitude test and the entire recruitment arrangements were nothing, but a well-plotted scam. Applicants were notified of the test via text messages a day to the aptitude test. NIS officers sold white polo t-shirts, white shorts and white canvas to applicants at N5,500 even when they knew that these items would NEVER be required for, or during the examination. NIS officers opened that entrance gate of the Lagos stadium at about 3.pm and that was when they started distributing the question papers. This was an examination slated for 8.00 a.m. Despite seeing a crowd numbering more than tens of thousands waiting under the heat of the scorching sun for several hours, only one entrance gate leading into the stadium was opened to applicants which caused a massive rush and stampede. Several applicants had to jump over the stadium fence to gain entrance into the main bowl. Distribution of question papers was carried out by throwing heaps of papers in the air for applicants to catch according to their physical and acrobatic might. Some applicants purchased the question papers at 3pm at N500. NIS instructed applicants to come to the exam venues with their acknowledgment slips which evidences the N1,000 payment transaction for the application forms. NIS officials destroyed this evidence by shredding these slips at the close of the examination. Thank God some people were unable to submit theirs. At about 5pm, NIS officials told applicants that the Lagos examination has been cancelled, by orders from above. This announcement forced angry applicants to begin a peaceful protest at the stadium ground. And lots more..... This is nothing but a scam, which can happen only under a corruption-infested, grossly under-performing administration. JUSTICE NOW!
