Majority of those replying you are not into Nigerian Army. I will advice you consult three or four middle ranks army in a different occasion , ask them your questions and compare their response, afterwards you make your decision. You will find those armies roaming the street, they are human, approach them.

Wait for screening (Before it use to be state screening before zonal screening, but now I think it's only zonal screening that you will undergo)
They will check your BP, check your anus (for pile) check your balls ( to make sure it's two) check if you have been operated before. Attitude test, x-ray test, oral test and physical test (running). What drops most people is fear of not been picked, which will make there BP to rise, and once you have high BP you will be disqualified. If you qualify for the training ,the training is in zaria (depot Nigeria army) you will be welcomed with frog jump from the first gate to the parade ground. After three months you will be paid 3months allowance (arrears) and then you will be recieving monthly allowance every month for three more months. The first two weeks will be hard and painful for You, but if you persevere and endure the pains without running away from training for a month, the rest will be easy, the more the months, the less the stress. You will be a private soldier (rank) with a salary of 49k. Your been igbo doesn't stop you from joining, just that it is more competitive, out of 1000 potential recruits, only 90 or less will be taken. As for getting commissioned later, you need to have bsc or its equivalents, serve the army for 15years (I heard it have been reduced to 12) with the rank of a Sgt before you can apply for executive commission, the training will take 3months after which you will become a full lieutenant. Your rank won't exceed major before retirement. But if you don't go for the commissioning, your highest rank will be Army warrant officer (Awo) which is hard to get, but you can become a master warrant officer, that will be after many years in the army.

Follow your mind. Good luck

If you tried killing your self 3x and failed, how do you think you can succeed in killing another person?
When faced with a certain situation and you have just a round in your mag to take out that enemy, failure would not be an option, you need to make that decision and act with precision.

If you’ve tried taking your life 3x as you said, you need to sort yourself out. Military isn’t for people with questionable mental health issues.

What is d salary structure like?
I think the NDA is a University on its own. Just that they combine training with theirs. I think it's about a 5 years course. After the 4yrs, u concentrate on your field in the final year which is the 5th year. It's either u r in the Navy, Army or Airforce. During this time those in the Navy are called midshipman. Subsequently after graduation that's pop u become a Lieutenant or Sub Lieutenant not too sure. All the best tho, it's hard to get in there if you don't have a big shot up there, I hv met pple who even converted to another religion just to be there. The training is tedious, people die oooo. The salary is cool. Mouth watering...

In summary, youre asking him to succeed at killing himself first then he will succeed in the army. Tiri gbosa for you.

The minimum qualification for tge non-commission officers is SSCE while tge maximum is diploma certificate. The maximum rank for this is Master warrant officer. If you are able to further and get a BSc or HND, you will then apply for presidential commission to tge rank of lieutenant as the case may be.

NOTE
* nobody should deceive you that without godfather you cannot further your education. Is a lie.. I know a lot of other ranks who are BSc and MSc holders. Note that your salary as SSCE holder in the military is a level 8 basic salary of 50,000.00 or there about.

Someone who survived cult life should also b able to.survive in.the millitary right?
Lol, i just dey laff you. surviving your everyday cult has nothing to do with surviving in the millitary. I think your main aim of wanting to join the army is to prove a point to people who always undermine you, rather than to serve the nation, then u gats have a rethink. But then why not settle down and get your bsc, then go for the direct short service course since its age limit is i think from 21-35 or atleast within that range. I wish you all the very best
