BabaAlabi: May God grant them the grace to survive this trying period. I can just imagine the anxiety whenever there is any mention of an attack. The families should however prepare themselves for anything such as preparing a will (incase of the unspeakable), setting up funds for fees and so on.

This is a speech made by Israel Prime Minister benjamin Netanyahu to his cabinet about 2 days ago. It was reprinted by Affan Sosibo for the African National Congress Youth League on the 8th July 2014.
I quote…” We are not obliged even the least to try to prove to anybody and to the blacks and Arabs that we are superior people. We have demonstrated that to the blacks and Arabs in 1001 ways. The State of Israel that we know of today has not been created by wishful thinking. We have created it at the expenses of intelligence, sweat and blood………We do not pretend like other whites that we like the blacks. The fact that, blacks and Arabs look like human beings and act like human beings do not necessarily make them sensible human beings. Hedgehogs are not porcupines and lizards are not crocodiles because they look alike. If God had wanted us to be equal to the blacks and Arabs, he would have created us all of a uniform colour and intellect. But he created us differently: Whites, Blacks, Yellow, Rulers and the ruled. Intellectually, we are superior to the Blacks and Arabs; that has been proven beyond any reasonable doubt over the years. I believe that a Jew is honest, God fearing person, who has demonstrated practically the right way of being……By now every one of us has seen it practically that the Blacks and Arabs cannot rule themselves. Give them guns and they will kill each other. They are good in nothing else but making noise, dancing, marrying many wives and indulging in sex. Let us all accept that the Blackman is a symbol of poverty, mental inferiority, laziness and emotional incompetence. Isn’t it plausible? Therefore that the Whiteman is created to rule the Blackman……And here is a creature (Blackman) that lacks foresight….. The average Black does not plan his life beyond a year”.

chacoonder: 3.62, a first class!!!?

I mean no offence! They university use american grading system,she had 3.62 out of 4.00. If it where d normal grading system of 5.00 we can equate it to 4.62 out of 5.00. She graduate wit 1st class degree.

edoyad: I saw this on Facebook and it was also making the rounds in some circles when I visited Kd last week. According to information the guys name is Leo, a kd indigene serving in Borno. He was scheduled to wed his sweet heart on 26/07/2014 in Kaduna. May his soul and that of his other colleagues cut short on national duty rest peacefully.

RIP Gentleman Officer ! RIP Lieutenant S Kyom Leo of 58 Regular Course! U died as hero! Doing wat we have signed for! To serve whenever the clarion calls and whatever ever the price or odds!

RIP Lieutant Onouha

billtommy: This are my questions pls

I intend joining the army via SSC, after conversion, would I be able to command a parade and be allowed to get a juicy appointment?

And as we know SSC starts with one star, how long does it take for an SSC officer tobe promoted to d rank of a 2 star? RC peeps take a year or thereabout, is it d same for SSC officers?

My friend like 2 have a juicy appointment? Upon conversion on ur 7th year in d service! U wil b come a regular combatant officer! D same as dos dat spend 5yrs in d academy! U are ability 2 deliver and produce result determines ur recommendation 4 "juicy appointment" as u called it, but let God decide 4 u as over greedness can lead to an early grave. All officers are commanders @various levels 2nd lieutenant/ lieutenants are platoon commanders! Commanding able body of 33 men!
Upon commission as 2ndLt u will b given an anti-date or wat we called seniority of 2 and half years, u will hang the 1 pip 4 anoda 2 and half years b4 promoted 2 lieutenant. Get HTACOS 12 revised edition 4 d latest information.

guruvick: Please what is the difference between Direct short service and Short service commission

you did not specify the arm of service, i mean DSSC Army or Navy or Airforce, since you want to different between DSSC and SSC u are refering to Army!
DSSC is an intensive 6-9 months intensive military training for professionals drawn from various disciplines to serve as officers in the non combatant services/ corps of d army! in army we have combat arms (infantry,armour,artillery) and non combat arms(legal service,education,) combat support arms(medicals,intelligence,military police) e.t.c. age 22-35 yrs,its mearnt 4 doctors, teachers,engineers! dey are mostly not directly involved in combat operations unless in some cases!cos u are given training to depend our country! bullets dont differentiate btw combatant and non-combatant! DSSC is mearnt 4 dos whom want 2 have a taste of military life without spending much time in d job,as its 4 a probation of 3yrs and a total of 10yrs service unless upon conversion to DRC(direct regular commission),at d end of training of DSSC u will commisioned into the NA as a lieutenant(2 stars) for doctors,lawyers,registered architects and phd holders will be given 3months seniority.

SSC is an intensive 9months at NDA, it aims to produce officers to serve in the combat arms of NA,SSC is an opportunity given to young Nigerians with civil qualifications b.sc/b.a/hnd to serve NA,at d end of d training they are posted to various combat arms irrespective of ur discpilne,meaning a holder of b.sc economics/accounting can b posted 2 infantry . age 24-29 and u will b commissioned into ,NA as a second lieutenant (1 star) ssc upon conversion will be regular combatant (RC).
for more explaination or enquires lay ur hands on HTACOS(harmonized terms and condition of service )

Don Demu: God bless my godfahter. Sir how i wish I can get in touch as regard my CO who might be your junior or ur coursemate or someone you know. I and i serve at 33 Field Artillery Brigade Sir and my CO is pursuing me way and manner...without me buying any job or flaunting orders. Am an ex-boy (NMS 95) and i dont fail to report as per the current Circular and for the sake of papa alpha yankeee Sir. I know i am not suppose to utter such here (Sir i dont know how to use the NL PM) but it is so galring that my platoon officer and even my regimental police both ask if i once bought the Officer's blanket job. Sir the last time i reported (all d way to bauchi} i met his absencce but decided to get in touch to let him know i reported just to make sure he doesnt book me, find fault or enter my dossier. As if NA is his village army, immediately i called he ordered me to travel down to Jos (HQ 3DIV) to see him which i did. only for him ask him to order me back as he picked the usual falt he likes picking that on a starchable on a thurday. It took the special grace of God before he formally released me for the concluded 42 SSC AFSB interview. Sir what do you think i should do in this case? Permission Sir...

Well am just a lima tango! I have met quite number of ex-boys likes of JU Echobu, E Alamu I don't know there coy! Den I know I maj SA Abimbola whom is Nms 96 and also an arty officer! If dey freeze ur alpha charlie charlie is most likely u don't stay in unit abi? But its a simple tin! My csm dat are from west coast like dey do am! Table d issue wen una dey do una ex-boys meeting surely his snrs will call him 2 order just WNG O will do d magic! Wats ur CO's rank! In box me his particulars if u hv I will check his senority den I will see if I hv sum1 dat can intervene! Stay out of trouble! Is dat clear?

frankgreat: Oga army, i really want to join army, am a graduate of information technology, my question is, as an IT personnel will i be drafted to go to war front? I wan join but i no wan fight...

Oga frank! Evry body wants 2 go 2 heaven but they don't want 2 die!
As 4 been graduate of IT makes no different no special 2 d army! I have msc IT wey bak in 2010, I did my degree in singapore n masters in malaysia and will b going 4 phd in few months time,am a commissioned officer! Am in the education corp as an instructor! We have 10 phd holders and some just completed there phd and some are still doing it,while some are doin masters! I know a cpl segun whom has completed his phd @ unilorin. The army is also a fountain of knowledge.
As 4 war! The training will transform u! Make u a better person and become a fire eater full of confidence, zero tolerance! Thank God 4 army they really brought out d man in me.

Let me answer some few threads cos so many questions asked! The person that posted this thread I really recommend ur eforts! But u should know that 06 is very long in d army! The shortest training u can attend in NDA is 9months not 6months dats NDA standard unles u train outside NDA e.g airforce dssc train in NAF base kaduna and DSSC army alternates its training btw NASME markudi and Jaji,So many reforms! U need 2 go bak and lay ur hands on harmonized terms and conditions of service HTACOS 12 revised editions and CAP A20 2004 2 be able 2 answer some curios questions! As 4 the masters degree holder! Yes u can! I was commissioned into d army wit msc but d basic qualification is bsc/hnd,msc is just an added advantage! I will soon be going 4 my phd in few months coming by his grace.
With ond cert, I think navy n airforce may enlist u as a corporal but 4 army is a private!
As 4 physical challenged person dat read comp sci, bro sorry dey don't take ppl wit disablities simple because of d strenous nature of d trianing and after training! Believe me! Its not easy I lost 4 of my coursemate during training and I almost lost my eye, I had 2 surgeries after training but I still feel light! Knowledge is worth sharing! All the best guys!
