The coaching team professionally deployed a blended adult learning delivery methodology, focusing more on practical applications, using relevant case studies, role play, mock sessions, ICT hands-on as well as structured review of past question papers.

At the end of the two weeks intensive coaching/training programme, some of the Participants have the following to say:

God has chosen who he wants but remember, fear him and carry out all we learnt in PSIN during the coaching in class, though it may be difficult but do your best. Avoid constant visit to ICPC and EFCC. When you retire you should not be call for corruption leading to heart diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and cancer. All your proceeds will end up in incurable diseases. I want to thank the Head of Service  for this wonderful initiative and this should continue.

“All praises and glory to the Almighty God for this interesting coaching claa coming to a close. I pray that the Almighty God will guide those that will be eventually selected for the 16 vacant slots. For those who might not make it. I say take heart be content in the fact that you fought a good fight, but God is the decider of who become PS. My advice to all of us on this platform is that we should try to maintain this network for influence in the future. Particularly to  PSIN, I say a big and resounding thank you on behalf of my colleagues for the passion and seriousness you brought to bear on the training the sky surely is not your limit. To our “DIGITAL HOS” Dr. Folasade Yemi- Esan I say congratulations for conducting the most credible PS selection exercise I’ve witnessed to date. For everyone I say congratulations for being part of making history.”
