On the issue of NMS student automatically becoming soldiers it's very true though it's optional but then you hardly see those who will want to opt out, except big men children. Who will want to leave when after secondary school you start earning salary and going by the books you'll be allowed to go to school once you're able to secure admission within a specificied period of time.

Let's stop arguing blindly, Ex boys after that secondary school are soldiers automatically because they combine both military training and academics, and they do this things for the six years they spend in school unlike normal soldiers that even spend just six months in training.


They'll will be posted to units and serve as any other soldier grow within the ranks until or when they're eventually commissioned possibly after school.

When u finish from NMS u are automatically a soldier...some of those guys who trained u in NYSc camp are Ex-boys(NMS graduates) ....NYSC training and service is too small for those small boys u call Secondary with no biz with yeye NYSC...is NYSC a qualification ??..Ex-boys cannot serve because they have passed that level they can only train u people
yes nysc certificate is a qualification. NMS remains a secondary school till eternity. An NMS leaver is a NECO or WAEC holder. And they often start their army jobs as a private soldiers, except military police officers who are giving the rank of a Lance corporal. But a graduate with nysc and a degree or HND are often enlisted into armed forces as a lieutenant rank either as one star � or two stars ✨ ✨.
Guy wake up!

Everyone that finishes from NMS is a soldier and after NMS you cannot decide to continue or not. You must put in at least 4 years post NMS before you can even decide to discontinue.

Look, from the moment you join NMS which is JSS1, you are already a soldier with Army number....and right from the that JSS1 you are being paid.

What's the other guy is trying to let you know is...

After NMS you are entitled to higher study leave...you can choose to go to NDA (which is not even automatic, you must meet and pass required exam and screening)

Then, you can also choose to o go civil school I.e University... You will be released unhindered to go to University while you're still a soldier and been paid salary at the same time studying.

After graduation from university.....the OP's question comes in...and the answer is NO! You cannot do NYSC but can apply for letter of exemption. Military men can't serve the country twice.
totally correct...anything outside this is false...baffles me how some people can argue boldly ignorantly.... someone even said he finished from nms and says nms is like command school...as how?

Correct just to add, if you see or anyone told you while in camp as a corper that he or she is a soldier or any of the force, that person only came hidinly cos going by the books you can't serve as a personnel, one of my guy served as a soldier an ex boy sef, in C II of last year in one of the camps the overall parade commander is a policeman. But such persons ain't serving officially. They only came with a different identity.

Stop misleading people. If you go to NMS and finish from a normal university asides NDA, you must serve.

NMS is just a secondary school. Not different from your command secondary schools , army day, airforce and navy secondary schools.

And mind you NMS grads are not by any means soldiers. If you want to become one, pass through NDA (RC) or buy RRI, SSC forms.

Because you do secondary school for NMS, u can't partake in NYSC? You must be high on monkey sperm.

NMS is just a regular secondary school run by the 3 arms of the military. (Navy, Army, airforce). Unlike command which is run by the army, navy sec run by the Navy and airforce sec run by the airforce. NMS just happen to be run by the 3 of them combined that's just the difference. If you graduate from NMS and go to Unilag for your degree, my brother you will serve. The only way you can evade nysc is if you decide to enroll in NDA for your higher education or join the army via RRI with just your NMS school cert.

I'm pretty sure you're confusing NMS for NDA. Stop arguing like a møron.
you guys are mixing up things here,nms is not same with command sec. sch. Nms are giving full military training including firearms,when they graduate they have a choice to become soldiers or refuse and be civilian now if an nms graduate goes to university and graduates and wants to work in civil career services then he has to go for nysc or asks for exemption.my parade commander during orientation was an exboy
Re: Do Military Men Go For NYSC? by kashoggi: 12:48pm On Nov 18, 2020
Let me contribute on this NMS issue.

Up to 1976, when you joined NMS you are issued with a Nigerian Army no, 63NA in those days, which makes you a soldier from day1
From 1977 NMS started issuing it's numbers but on passing out (graduation), but you were issued with an Army number and ID and posted to a unit. While at NMS you got monthly stipends courtesy of the Nigerian Army after passing out and reporting to your unit you are enrolled in the NA payroll and start receiving your salary as a private soldier. For some this ends up being a career path for others they proceed to NDA meanwhile others proceed to Universities. You remain on the NA payroll while at the University and are expected to report back during every holiday and on graduation. From here other paths to commission( becoming an officer) open up.

This is how it used to be, not sure if this holds true today.

So even though graduates choose to go for NYSC, it is technically illegal for them to do so because they are expected to be back in their unit.

The idea of NYSC is to give graduates basic paramilitary training and also a way uniting the Nation through postings that exposes you to way of life of other regions. However, serving military and paramilitary personnel already have this training and exposure through their postings without forgetting the fact that they are also been paid for the FGN.

It’s actually an offense for a serving military or paramilitary personnel to go for NYSC cos you’re already serving the nation who inturn pay for your services. And for the argument of NMS ( Nigerian Military School) it’s a not just a secondary school cos they are trained on how to use weapons and made to face very tough military trainings. On passing out they are given n the option of either continuing as soldiers in the army or opting out to live normal lives like civilians. those who opt in automatically become soldiers. However, those there was a time that option of directly become soldiers was abolished due to UN policy on child soldiering cos of the kids were said to not be up to 18years of age which makes them not qualified to be soldiers as they are not yet adults. But i think that policy have been reversed. And age of entry adjusted to ensure they become 18years old during passing out. So that’s all about (NMS) attached is a picture of some NMS boys. Thanks

Systrom:
But NMS graduates don’t have any rank, also they don’t receive salary from FG, also they don’t get deployed to fight battles/wars, they are not attached to any army formation etc

Also, when one graduate from NMS, he is given the option to join the army and start his career as a private (pvt) but he can decline the offer or proceed to continue in the military, it’s not a must and it’s a matter of choice. Some may decide not to continue in the military career and enroll in University.

You're so foolish. NMS is controlled by the Army and an education commander commands the school. After POP, you'll be enlisted into tgr Nigerian Army, then you can either apply for Academy or university depending on your choice. Every NMS boy has an ID card with a service number.

Why people think ex boys are soldiers is because they are allowed to put on camo within campus and when going for training.

However they are not soldiers and joining the army after you graduate is optional.

Technically being a Military personnel you are considered to be serving your father land hence it'd be an offence to be seen in Nysc khaki.
But some soldiers who after joining the job are privilege to go back to school still maneuver there way and go for service although secretly, they sneak out to attend cds making sure not to be seen with uniform. when asked why they do this some say letter of exemption may have a negative impact on them securing a job in future plus the allawee can come in handy. So if you know your way and can get the chief clerk to give you pass to briefly attend orientation camp then in between bribing and sorting the rest of your service year can be taken care of.
