When any defect is found it must be noted in the certificate and the medical examiner should state his opinion whether or not it is likely to interfere with the efficient performance of the duties which will be required of the candidate if the condition is remediable by operation it should be so stated.
If a candidate is declared medically unfit by the Central Medical Board, he/she will be informed by the Federal Public Service Commission that he/she has been declared medically unfit.
