Its not just drill, drill and drill but a time to check out their turnout, bearing and confidence during the interview component. Some were confident, some were cocky, others were nervous and a few "improvised" their answers. I would like to thank all the Evaluators and Admin assistants for assisting me on these selection. A BIG THANK YOU

Today marks the last selection for the Supernumerary Course. As you can see from this photo, God has given his blessings to those who tries to excel. It was a hot morning but those who came faced the challenge with zest and vigor. A trade mark of a Supernumerary.

Kindly pass the word around that the application for the Supernumerary Training Camp selection will close on 25 Jan 06. The response is truly overwhelming.
