ugo4u: Brothers I just watched the video of the attack by Bokoharam on Matele, damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was a disaster for the army, kai!!! The video was too gross I can’t really imagine what went wrong but I think a poor base situational awareness and inadequate weapons will be a major suspect. After watching the video ba especially when one soldier was rounded up and given a headshot, yet he was still struggling to hold his rifle but those bastards rained bullets on him. After seeing the video instantly I felt a strange feeling in me, My heart was filled with unadulterated hate. If there is anytime to join the army, for me this is it. I am not saying that I am a commando oo or I will come and change the tides, but I believe this is the time to show patriotism to one’s country, for there is no greater honor than picking up arms and fighting for one’s country. Rip Lt Col Sakaba(Commanding Officer) his younger brother and the brave men of Matele, May God give their families the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.
bro i respect ya courage but that video na die, i believe de army training will a make a "chicken" thick God bless the army
Sheriff232: You will not be able to grow in the job,some profession require you enroll at a younger age so you can have a profetting career progression,if you join army at the age of 35 and not with the rank of a major as done for consultants then you are doing yourself a disservice,you will find out that you will retire at a very low rank.This is the only advantage that regular trained officers have over short service,most of them pass out at 20,21 and at most 23,so you find out that at 28 they are already captain and at 33 or 34 they are already major,so the issue of age bracket is good in some professions.But jobs like civil service,NNPC,DPR,NPA etc,i think they should review the age bracket for employment,this is because retirement here is either on attainment of 60 years of age or 35 years of concurrent service unlike the armed forces that each rank has an age ceiling
bro are trying to say if one should get in (nda ssc) at 26 he wont atain good rank b4 retirement?
i stand to be corrected i believe it means a court and ur local government or serving military personel is to sign (ie 2 from this 3 bodies are to sign)
this what the instructions says "Print your photo cards.The first page is to be signed by a Court of law while the second page is to be signed by the Chairman/Secretary of your Local Government or any military officer of the rank of Lieutenant Colonel and above or equivalent who hails from your State of Origin" who may help and explain better?
Integrator1: I pray you'd make the list and since you've made enquiry before joining, such scenario would be your fate and let's see how you'd react and manage it.. we'd be waiting to term it " you got what you deserve".
i dint pray for such scenario to happen to him and stop wishing me bad, is that clear
deris more to de uniform, no wonder soldiers behaves like beast, like i believe always if God should let me join he will surely give de strength to survive de trainings.
