The govt is really wicked to poor Nigerians. Collect alot of money from Nigerians for jamb form and later more money for post jamb and yet, over a million will not get admitted and now pay to join the army.
Corruption has been institutionalised. Take corruption out of Nigeria and see a miserable people.

With all the Van damme films I watched while growing up, I had wanted to join the army, if my mama had not frustrated my plans!
Anyway, thanks to her, I would have planned a coup with the way uncle Jonah, is running the ship

How else will it be done ?? By robots??
You do have a point though, military action is just one component of fighting BH. The other action that will deliver results is going after the masterminds and financiers but somehow there is complete mystery enshrouding that and perhaps the fear of exposing these individuals

yorke: Funny people. Trying to recruit people that will go and face Boko Haram

my thought exactly, Dude

I expected we treat the most important part of this recruitment exercise. Why on earth would Nigerian Armed (and the 'Armedless') Forcess be selling their recruitment forms, makes millions of naira out of the poor masses even when the Government is expending millions as budgetary allocations for the exercise and yet will only recruit few only start another sales. What is becoming of this once great nation?

Why join an army that Boko Haram raids her barracks and steal the weapons in the armory?

huh! i cant join a demoralised & criminals institution aka nigerian army,cos these ppl just committed a war crime in baga,borno state.the civillian casualty as was reported around 185 dead,which i doubt the figure is actually more than that,maybe thousands of causualties(both dead & injured).and finally,the purpose of this so-called recruitment is to replace the (large)numbers of undisclose casualties among the army during the bogus fighting wit (a ghost) 'bokoharam'

Are you for real? #just asking#

@barth,as they say; "the first casualty in any conflict/war zone is the truth"
i ask why is it that nigerian army dont allow news reporters 2 report(true news) 4rm what is going on the battlefield?

lol @ battlefield.
Well i don't think i have the answer to that question, but one thing i do know is that such act is not unique to Nigerian Army. May just be a way of securing a crime scene so that evidence are not tampered with. #my candid opinion#
