Please ur sincere answers will be highly appreciated.
These SENIOR OFFICERS, DPO etc
That is required to sign the attestation form, must they come from your state by BIRTH or they should be serving as an officer in your state?

Which exactly do they mean by he/she must come from one's state?
I need to be cleared on this please.
Thanks in adv

He must come from your state and not just any officer serving in your state... i.e if u are from osun,an officer who hails from osun must sign fr you.

fashionme:
Good evening house. Please, must someone get a guarantor from a high rank military officer before he can be invited for the test and training?
I have applied twice now( 2 years) and I have not been contacted for a test even for once.

Maybe you don't fill the forms correctly. choose your field according to your course of study and age range should be in place.

Shariiiif:
I shall give it a trial again this year for the 3rd time now.
The Last one I was lucky to be at the Final Stage, I pray I make it to the list this 28course.

ONWARD TOGETHER

you tried I was only at the final stage for army... how was the navy exams like?

applying for only navy and airforce this year. make army carry their wahala and go

sikowitz17:
are you minding him? I wish you well with your other options boss...we will all smile soonest...

Amen and i wish you well too brother.

Oladeligt:

And is there any need for you to make announcement here

it's not an announcement. I quoted someone who wrote about having lost of interest. I'm not fr from that person so I concured by writing what I wrote above.

sikowitz17:
we both know this isn’t true...

my entire family and Godfather are saying no that I shouldn't apply that I should wait for either navy or air force. My mom has been on my neck and I can't seem to go against their will for now sir.

ucheuzor1:
Last year I really wanted to join the Nigerian army. The passion was there. Now I have lost 95% interest. Well let me check if am within the age limit. If Dem shortlist me fine, if not, I no send again. Am taking software development more serious now and moreover, I have done far with it.

I'm not going even applying despite the high chances for me this year... I've dropped the ambition for army in particular despite making it far in course 46.

I wish you guys to represent us this year best of luck.

Navy is next to deploy SBS commandos

QuadrilAyinde:

Sp which part of the Screening exercise got u evicted??

A day before facing the board members. The lady who read my report said I'm fine and got no issues that she can't really do anything but I should be thankful I'm free from all illnesses and I should apply for course 47. I was given an injection by and auxiliary nurse and I robbed it just on my thighs and it formed a little swollen. Tho it's painless and very small but still got evicted oh. after Lockdown I will go take it out maybe after taking form again.

sikowitz17:
Mean say we go apply for both niyen!
But t he only problem I foresee is that I get shortlisted for both... people are very vigilant.. some people will bear me witness here... when you get shortlisted, you’ll begin to get funny Facebook requests asking how you did it and who’s your godfather... some people will come and check your pictures sef..
my surname is Ada........... and that means I always get shortlisted no 1 on the list... if I make both lists, it won’t take a genius to notice it and if the army is alerted..
person for from there go house
But that’s my personal problem

God go do am you will be shortlisted...no fear double shortlistings. it will be a win win situation for us all.

QuadrilAyinde:

I think I have a contribution to make on this Issue though... Earlier Last month, I was chatting on WhatsApp with The Then Abakaliki Barracks Commanding Officer where I served in 2018 (Now A Colonel) and he also seem to Advice me to APPLY FOR BOTH according the attached Screenshot below...

Thank God a screenshot is attached... I tried it personally last year so I'm talking from experience.

BabaIbo:


That shiii is fearful and discomforting at the same time.
I remember the night my ex came to my place, later in the night she started complaining of stomach pain, it was serious o.
Different thoughts started running through my mind, small thing I go check if she dey breath.

hahàhahahhahahahahaha na God dey save person oh. My own happened in a big flat and all neighbors around. my thoughts where how I go take escape this building without people knowing and packing all my things. na school my mama send me no be babe house oh.

sikowitz17:
just out of curiosity, what if you get so lucky and get shortlisted for both and somebody notices his and reports it? In your opinion would there be penalties?

If I get shortlisted for both then I prayerfully make a choice.... They would think I made the list and got a better offer elsewhere and didn't report for screening. If they know i would tell the board members that it's two different recruitment and I gave it a shot. After all, all die na die Sir... what's your own opinion Sir?

DaddyRochie1642:
Stop inviting Females to Sleep Over at Your Place.

I don stop this nonsense after babe wey camp me for house suffer stomach pain. I fear for my life. I was sweating like a goat about to die.

Good morning everyone and hope we are all doing great today. I have been receiving mails from some concerned users here consigning double registration. What is double registration? Double registration is when u registration under DSSC twice or more or when you apply for SSC twice or more. You can register under SSC and register under DSSC because DSSC is a recruitment process done at same time with SSC but it's different. I'm talking from experience as I did same last year and I got shortlisted under SSC and my village men in training and among the last DSSC are officers now with no issues. I got this legit info a long time ago from a fatherly figure in the armed forces and it has worked and proven to be true... U don't need to change mail or bvn I used same email and bvn with same details but one was under DSSC and another under SSC... Shalom and a blessed Sunday to us all here.

Why US no dey do all these gragra with North Korea? we need action not bullying...

ugo4u:
This is gonna be quite a lengthy post.

@Emarc16 Thank you for sharing your views it's within your rights moreover alternative views is the soul of democracy and a rational society.
Life is a mystery, there is no one size fit all formula to success or a fruitful/profitable life. One of the things that make we human "gods" is the power of Choice. We have the power to do whatever we want or set our mind to achieve, and whichever path we choose has its own end result. As everyone will bare the responsibility and consequences of his/her actions.
I am a firm believer that one's destiny lies in his/her own hands, and we have the power to change things e.g The biblical character Jabez was concieved in pain but delivered in victory; he took charge of his destiny and altered it for good, same for Hezekiah, Mordecai, People of Nineveh etc in contemporary times there are many people who took charge of their life after weighing the risk involved and went ahead and change the course of history; Ben Carson, Thomas Edison, Sir Isaac Newton, Marie Curie etc. in some instances some of them lost their lives doing what they were passionate about, they left a mark before leaving this world.
For some of us what attracts us to the military isn't money, fame or power. It's just the unquenchable passion to serve, in my own case I've always have the dream of serving in the military and some day become a military instructor teaching military tactics/strategy.
What I hate in this world is not trying at all or exploring all possible avenues to achieve my goal, it's better for one to put in all efforts and best in any given venture and fail rather than not trying at all. I am very much aware that in this army job I may be maimed or at worst lose my life, this is one fact have come to terms with as this may be the price I have to pay for making that choice, it could also be the opposite atleast everyone wishes for the best. The most important thing is making impact in whatever venture one sets sail, for we all must die, dying is not the problem as no one will get out of this life alive, how and what you died for is what makes one a man. The problem many people face is not knowing their purpose in life or having a grasp of why they are going into a certain profession w/o weighing the risk if it's within their threshold and this is a recipe for disaster especially those that join the military for one reason or the other without putting into consideration the cons or consequences of their choice.
Last month I had an unusual encounter with an elderly lady in a very lonely road in one of the least habited areas in Kaduna she offered me a lift and in the course of our interaction she revealed to me that she is a soldier(MWO). I told her about my odyssey, she told me that as long as I have passion and weighed the pros/cons of the job and decides to go ahead then I should keep on trying, she got the job after her 7th attempt many people that joined the army before her have already been retired for one reason or the other. This same woman have gone for many peace keeping missions and have trained alot of soldiers at depot she even showed me the awards and special recognition given to her by the COAS, in her words she said never give up, keep trying good things comes to those who are consistent and focused.
More than anything else she fired my spirit up as for me it's its either I get in as long as their is an opportunity or age catches-up with me but voluntarily backing down is never and will never be an option it's totally out of it, absolutely out of it, I am that resolute not even the threat of death will make me change my mind. Even if I am presented with an opportunity to work in the choicest of organisation/multinational coys in the world and also offered a chance to join the military, I will pick the military without batting an eyelid even if it means I'll sleep in trenches throughout my career it will be more satisfying than living in regret in an air-conditioned office.
Thomas Edison conducted 1000 failed experiment the 1001st became the light bulb if he had given up prolly we would still be using candles or another scientists would have made the breakthrough.
There is a saying that goes thus; if you hang around the barber's shop long enough sooner or later you gonna get a haircut. I totally disagree with the school of thought that always attributes failure to the metaphysical or pointer to a bad omen, someone here was even talking about joining the Navy/Airforce to avoid death, I think this is a wrong mindset anyone can die anywhere. Today Fg Offr Arotile was laid to rest in Abuja she was an Airforce officer and death came calling in an unusual manner, some of her Coursemates in the army serving in the northeast are still alive and some will even retire successfully after serving out their years in the service. For the Fg Ofr she lived a short but impactful and fulfilled life; some people die at 25 and aren't buried untill 75(Idiom).
Do what makes you happy as long as it doesn't run foul against the law, death isn't the opposite of life it is a part of it.
I am strengthened by what I feel, because taking risk is not about going for a job, it also all about knowing what you know and what you don't know, it's about being open to people, the chances you take the faith that you have that's what's going to define you.
You have your own reason for quitting which is also ok, others like me also have a reason for pressing on. In the end it's favour and God blessings we pray for to reach the apogee of our chosen path, impact lives positively & at the end look back and be happy for the choices we made.

Thanks Man. I'm inspired by your zeal. May all our prayers be answered so we all get fulfilled as we all desire. Thanks ones again for your understanding and inability to pick offense in my write up.

ugo4u:

sikowitz17:

Boss national TV(NTA) for show am na...

sikowitz17:
Bro I remember meeting you... I thought you made it in ooo Kai
But for real, people try and fail all the time.. doesn’t mean they’ve got to stop... There is the place of consistency in the race to glory... if I keep trying and I keep getting shortlisted and I keep getting bounced at medicals till when I can’t apply anymore, I’ll know it’s not Gods place for me... doesn’t mean I’m sitting idle depending on army alone... I’m a UI designer, front end developer, drone pilot and photographer... it’s just passion that’s keeping me on this... I’ve asked God severally to take this thing away if it wasn’t His wish and I can tell you for a fact that it always comes stronger... I can do data for 20GB just to head to YouTube to go and watch morale videos and NDA (the making of an officer).. people have tried once and got it... i met plenty of them 45/46.. people have tried 7 times and got it the 7th time... i met one in nda... people got in as RC and got expelled from the academy... I met plenty of them from my 62rc ... and want to come back as SSC..life is times and seasons like Ugo said a while back... when it’s your time, no devil can stop you from getting it..
I’ve been fortunate to identify why I’ve not been able to get in and I’m dealing with it... this time will tell.. I wish you well with all your future ambitions bro and we will all meet at the top.
For my guys that are undeterred and willing to serve! We go again.

Thanks brotherly for not picking offence. I have also tried from NDA days till I was in year 3 then stopped... I wish us well in all our endeavors with long life so we continue the good stories and chatting like we are doing today. As it's fondly said it's not how far but how well. Thanks for your ideal understanding Sir.

eclipsehemmy:
sorry to say o, with all due respect this is utterly rubbish,you don't tell people what to do, army is not your way ,bye which one is " sikowits it's not your way, ugo4u army is not your way" please delete that rubbish.... I know someone that tried joining the army five different times and was unsuccessful,he got it the sixth time and today he is the Corp commander of a whole Corp in Nigerian Army..... Which yeye prophet are you, do God speak this way. God is not a God of confusion please , whatever you saw is for you not for another person, please let's take caution . And that oga always coming with yeye analysis everyday please keep quiet e don do, una no dey let us read again , people just dey scroll and pass. Better info go just come and go..... Abeg make we take caution, nobody is really anonymous on social media, reduce your negative comments about the military you post online, no go use your hand do yourself, I have said this alot of times, make we all take caution abeg.

what works for you night not work for Mr B... message passed. If u say it's rubbish then no problems. life is all about choices so make yours wisely Sir.

God saved so many of us here but we are hell bent on leaving earth so quickly by our own choices in life. It's good to join the armed forces and defend our dearly beloved country, but it's never the job of us all to do it. Some will serve in other fields aside the armed forces. I was among those in NDA for course 46 (PL 43). Fondly known as the prophet who keep giving details to how and what next was to be unveiled. I met Sikowitz (ON14) met other of guys here. actually I wasn't preparing for the army but Navy when army shortlisted me and I decided to use one stone to kill two birds but I was caught up and I lost both. God opened my eyes to the terror coming and this terror will engulf many and only reason I wasn't slaughtered was because I had forgotten my rifle and had to go back to pick it up and when I had returned all the troops where no more. I read how we make suggestions here and how best it is to fight bokoharam, buying kits and so on but sometimes I laugh. Do we think we are more sensible than those dying daily? haven't some bought gears from Amazon? Let's be realistic and know that it's not PS4 it's a life and death scenario. No second chance like we get in game's. Even in game's we still die despite the many life's and trials. Sometimes I feel fighting bokoharam in the navy and airforce is much better than in the army cos they are more kitted and welfare is top notch for their troops in north east. The ratio of death of Navy/air force to army can't be compared. Sikowitz your way no be army oh(this is your 3rd trial I guess), Ugo4u your way no be army oh. Captain Isa told us when we went for review in anger that we think he is happy doing this job again? He had grey hairs already and always ready to finish you if you enter is trap. Let's know the mind of God before forcing ourselves into what's not meant for us( I remember the woman who took my b.p asking me why I opted for SSC and if I have a better job opportunity outside I should accept it diligently. She told me that they prefer their RC guys to us SSC I couldn't ask why but I could smell something and I thanked her and left. Tho I almost cried leaving academy for no reason but I give God the glory. Another chance will be here soon let God have his way and guide us. Make lack of job no guide us oh (lolzzzzzzz) cheers guys. Victory is from God alone.

Baldwretch:



Boss!!! You're the big boss. Thank you. However seems like it's only 6 months. Would still apply, though. Hahaha!!!

Update on the agro: do you think I stand a chance with BSC maths?

my friend that got it in the last batch applied with bsc on library and information science.
you are good to go sir... u have the idea on agricultural activities from secondary school and morever it's more about writing reports.

Baldwretch:

Nice work you are doing here Muhammad. Is there any category that is a bit lax? I mean, I don't have to show up everytime? Like maybe once or twice a week without any consequences? Also, do the grad and non grad categories get paid the same amount?

it's N agro. I'm a graduate of computer science but I applied for N agro cos I know of the last batch they only meet on thursdays to to give reports. I personally opted for it so I can have time for other stuffs. it's better than to be posted to one interior village to teach 3 times a week with huge transport palava.

francisgodstime:
pls can non graduate apply

yes
