It is in Hausa in the ajami/Arabic script and it means " Victory belongs to God'

Also a reference to the fact that most of the Army' s earliest recruits spoke Hausa ( not that they were necessarily Hausa or Fulani).

Intact most Army recruits are from the Middle belt.

Hausa by the way is not the only language written in Arabic script, Turkish, Urdu , and Persian are other examples. Anyways, most hausa is written in roman script these days

Fortunately, that's a lie. I almost got in without knowing anyone except God and my books.
If it is not for you then don't push it. Heaven might be saving you from what you do not know.

Things You Didn’t Know About Those Commissioned Into the Nigerian Army

This article on the different commissioned officers in the Nigerian Army, will help clear the confusion lingering in the minds of civilians that want to take up a career in the Nigerian Army.

There are 5 types of commission in the Nigerian Army (NA) – Not Armed Forces.

They are:

1. Regular Combatant (RC). Training takes 5 years.

2. Short Service Combatant (SSC). Training takes 6 – 9 months.

3. Direct Regular Combatant (DRC). Now attained on conversion from DSSC.

4. Direct Short Service Combatant (DSSC). Training takes 6 – 9 months.

5. Executive Commission (EC). Training takes 2 – 3 months.

Details of such commissions are to be found in the Harmonized Terms and Conditions of Service (TACOS) for officers of the Nigerian Armed Forces but a summary goes thus: RC and SSC are combatants, trained to fight battles. Others are not meant to be combatants.

Both SSC and DSSC are of relatively short duration (not more than 12 years I think, excluding extension of service) and must convert to RC and DRC respectively to enjoy a longer career. Theoretically, RCs and DRCs can rise to become generals i.e Brigadier Generals, Major Generals etc. Remember the pyramid structure? The higher it gets, the smaller it becomes. In other words, many are called but only a few are chosen.

DRC’s are mainly professionals – surgeons, pharmacists, chaplains, surveyors etc. and are usually not found in the core combat arms of Infantry, Armour and Artillery but are to be found in the Army Engineers and Signals. EC’s are made up of former soldiers and do not usually exceed the rank of Major.

There are varying criteria for the various commissions. In reality, the advantage is more on the side of those who were originally RC,s than those who were originally SSC,s in terms of age, rank in the Nigerian army, numbers etc. However, anything can happen, for instance Lt. Gen. Ishaya Bamaiyi (rtd.) rose to become Chief of Army Staff (COAS), even though he wasn’t originally an RC.

Although DRCs may never become COASs or General Officers Commanding (GOCs), they can apart from being Staff Officers also hold command posts in corps or services in which they predominate. These include Education, Medical and Finance among others.

Life in the Army here in Nigeria can be promising, particularly now that efforts have been made to consolidate emoluments, but achievement of success or wealth in the Army (here in Nigeria as well as is in other countries) is a product of motivation and determination. If you want to live well, you will. If you don’t, you won’t. The choice is really yours! For RC or DRC, minimum years of service is about 15 years and life as a cadet can be quite strenuous.

Generally, training is in the Infantry Corps Centre and School (ICCS), Jaji, Kaduna State. As for the DSSs and ECs, their training is usually less strenuous, not as in NDA where RCs and SSCs are trained. Cadets are usually humorously welcomed with the euphemism, “Unfortunate Nigerians, you will nearly die but you will not die!” But you should survive if you are physically fit after all, many have gone before you.

As a cadet, you are entitled to allowances which may not really cater for your family if you have one but could go a long way to help you sustain yourself.

If you wish to obtain more information on the Nigerian Army and the types of application forms available, you can check with the Army Public Relations Department in any military barracks near you.

For RC, you need at least 5 credits including English and Mathematics. For SSC, DRC and DSSC, you must be a graduate. Lawyers in the army are usually found in the Army Legal Services and the Military Police. They can also be found in lesser numbers in other corps and services.

As for your private practice, it all depends on what type but you won’t be expected to have your private practice as a lawyer alongside your military career.

Lastly, it is also noteworthy to say that the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) now offers some post-graduate courses for those in the military as well as for those not in the military.

So, should they write in Hebrew, so you can feel comfortable? ...Common man, Arabic word doesn't mean it's only for muslims, It's just a language. If you do google search well, there are any non-muslim citizens in the middle-east that speak in arabic language.

Too much story for just army....besides Nigerian army really needs a new logo, our official language is English, but Arabic is what's used to write whatever is written on the logo, the army is for everyone in Nigeria, not for a certain set of people, such changes would be effected in the future..if the present generation lack the mentality and knowledge to do it..!

Besides Nigerian army also needs a new code of conduct, a new oath...imagine soldiers who swore to protect Nigerians on there graduation having completed how many years/month of training, would now come out and be thinking they are higher than civilians..instead of them to show real love to the people they swore to protect, u would see some of them punishing civilians on the street (just one soldier) a big disgrace to the army..

A huge reform is coming to the army and I can tell u it would be hot and the victims of the reforms would be the generals especially, incompetent fat, pot bellied, niggas that use sticks to support themselves from falling when walking and they call it swagger stick (what a shame) keep deceiving yourselves..!! It either u kit up and show the real power of a general or u are out..!!!
