Ohh it actually does affect the price. I’m talking about booking a one-way ticket vs a round-trip one
Do you mean one can stay till the next day after the day the camp is supposed to close?

Not everyone finish the same day. Seeing the last day is a grace

Gentlemen what are the procedures for vetting? Especially for those that study in different states other than their state of origin.

There’s a railing to assist your legs to stay in position. Just give it your best at that point. It’s for 2 minutes. Do as many as you can do.

Oga me, that beam climbing (pull up) I can only do one. Any suggestions pls

Sam2310:
both of them have their Wahalaa...
Pic1: Let take this 5 matches as example, assuming u have only 100 to stake, potential to win is 40,257 bonus including
Pic2: u apply 'CUT1' potential to 37,032, bonus including, that mean some portion of your potential 40,257 win have been removed to serve the 'CUT1' feature, in other word, 'INSURANCE' but the bonus is not removed....
So if all the game come u win 37k if Cut1 happen u win 300naira, just take it as STAKEBACK feature but your stake can be multiple.. na 100naira u stake beforebefore, now u get back 300naira to try again Based on insurance way cover u...
Pic3: 'Flexible' no bonus for u, if all the game come, noting consign them na 4k u go collect....
Flexible is good when u have extra fund to bet, as u stake the main game 100naira, u have to find other fund to stake the flexible too
THE CHOICE IS YOUR cool

Thank you brethren. Go round the internet looking for this explanation. But see how simple you made it.

Cut one na just STAKEBACK of your bet amount kawai

I also faced board at falgore course 26 (CANVELED). Actually the idea is to look smart when facing board. Soldiers and officers were like "are you going to face senior men like that? My friend go and shave, bring out your reserve white shirt and if you don't have, make sure you wash the one you're wearing before your state turn"

Some candidates were wearing jersey green short for the exercise but once you're to face board. They will caution you to change in other to increase your chance of selection.

Now this is somehow overlooked. But when Hausa man give out his doughter for marriage at the age of 14, you hear all sort of things.

Only God knows when she start having sex. If your doughter is due for marriage and you don't feel safe keeping her, marry her out. My 2 cent

Very good question. You will be taught water discipline and “Gwaiwa/gbewa” discipline. 😂
You won’t eat enough to even pee or use th toilet. You will be told to do certain things very early in the morning around 0300hrs. Manage and ease yourself at that point. Your free time is the time between waking up and mustering for head count every morning. You can say your prayers by then too

Wonderful

Sir, the stippen given monthly, can it sustain one or someone need to be given additional support from family and friends?

Alright, so I won’t be able to give full details but I’d give a simplified version of what training looks like.
After we successfully completed screening, we were asked to resume 2 weeks later or thereabout. I had to quickly source for money to buy the basic things like salala and white vests and Garri plus sugar (very important).
My first day, I got to kaduna with an 8am flight. I got to the academy around 9am but I couldn’t go to the sport complex because I developed cold feet. The shouting and “maltreatment” of prep wingers to candidates made me very scared. I almost went back home but home was too far away. I didn’t think I could survive so I hung around with a friend at the Mami market. He encouraged me to leave when it was 6pm and I was still scared to go. After plenty encouragement, I asked myself what will my father say of me? What about the people I told that I was going to join the Army? I gained courage and joined up. That was the beginning of the longest day of my life. I had to carry my heavy bags on my head (rookie mistake) don’t ever carry heavy bags. Find a way to make your burden light. Carry only what you can hunch with cos if you carry overload, you will nearly di.e.
After all the shouting and running to get documented into platoons and company, I made a terrible mistake. The NCO asked what’s inside this carton, I said “should I open it for you to see”🤡🤡…like a proper clown, he called one of the meanest prep wingers to “carry this clown”… I forward rolled the entire length and breadth of the football field twice with kicking and shouting from the PW. That white got condemned immediately. I moved to another prep winger, she was pissed that I was a giant (it is an offence to be extremely tall or built on the bigger side)…she gave me 500 hunches, my legs almost gave up. Worthy of note, buy canvas with “chin gum sole and at least one size bigger than you”. You will be squatting on your toes a lot and this can cause your legs to get bigger and wider. After doing the hunches to get satisfaction, we were driven to the candidates village where the sorrow started properly.
We were all required to carry our bags on our heads and hunch for about 300meters or thereabout. Now I had two bags one on my head and another on my back. Gentlemen, I cried cos my legs were properly heavy and someone was hitting me with scorpion stick. (Just manage and maneauver but don’t get caught)…I had to say that I hadn’t broken my fast (Ramadan period) so I was allowed to drink water but I finished up the extreme sport that night. We were allocated bed spaces with names and buckets and beddings. I finally saw my bed…lmao… they wheeled us out again to suffer for coming late cos we think they’d have lost strength…I did 3man carrying while going up and down on a leg that was already on fire. Gentlemen, that night was hell.

We were allowed to go to bed around 0100hrs only to be woken up by 0300hrs for Jikapa. (This soon became our daily routine). Every day till the last day of prep wing.

We started going for drill lessons, weapons handling, general service knowledge etc. you’d think the mental classes will cause ease in the physical drilling, na lie, instead it got more intense. There were nights we completed 700 push ups and 1000 sit ups just because 🤧

Then came “Night of power” these involved people who were culprits all through the day time for one offence or the other and people who failed to complete their push ups and sit ups during night putee. I used to be a regular customer in “higher echelon” cos I was not physically strong enough at the start (I got properly strong after sha) …this particular night, I had been cut from my squad as usual for coming up late during push ups. I got to Join up with other culprits this particular night and we had the most malicious instructors present, water and pebbles inside iron buckets only meant one thing… “the Angel of death is here”
Next thing “press up everywhere and X your hands”. I started reading Hail Mary cos once you hear the voice of your saviors being the one serving the job, you know it’s going to be a long night. Long story short, after suffering that night somebody dashed and one person fainted (this was what saved the rest of us)…we were released around 0200hrs since 2300hrs of the previous day 😩😭 (this was the day I knew that it’s not Army work that will kill me). Scorpion stick broke on my head this night 😂…it’s funny now, it wasn’t funny at the time.

You will suffer properly as everything is designed to test you and push you to the limit.

You’d pretty much do this for the during of orep wing, but you’d learn the rudiments of being a military person, posture, poise, confidence, test of annoyance etc
You’d learn everything you need to know fast during this phase.

Ofcourse I can’t tell you everything here. These are just general stuff.

After prep wing, those who passed drill square test will be allowed to start wearing their uniforms and that’s when you start feeling like a part of th academy community a bit.

You start going for exercises and practicalizing the theories you’ve learnt.

One thing you can’t take out of whole exercise is thag it mentally prepares you for the worst state of anarchy and disorganization…it helps you to be able to focus in spite of chaos around you. Quick decision making and not just making decisions but making t right decisions and putting the best with whatever situation you find yourself. Making the best out of you no matter t he circumstances

Bottom line is who no go no go understand


All is well

Sir how often do you

Use the toilet during the day,
Daily eating,
Time to bath and shave

ANY FREE RESTING DAY?
