Sky-walker:
i belive your reasons are wrong. I will suggest you verify what you saying in regards to IT
1)Pay: they dont pay well. i think its around £18,000 to about £22000.I might be wrong but the last time it was on the news that they were not being look after properly. do you really want to risk your life for that?

2)Travel: can you explain travel? i thought anyone could travel anywhere in the world. Even odinary British citizen can go anywhere

3)Education: Lets the honest, you wont be given access to secured data and their infrastructure. You will be screened and since you have ties with Nigeria and your parents are not British citizens,you cant be security cleared and so you will just be doing basic stuffs. Even after military life, your chances of getting an IT job is slim because you will be working with different devices which business don't use and you know the issue most soiders face when they come back from war. people think there are not psycologically good enough to work in a business environment due to what they have gone through during their jobs as soldiers. You have read how some pubs and bars are refusing to even allow solders in

4) you said "I am a believer that they is more to life than sitting behind a computer" . What do you belive in? You believe that life is about kill or be killed?

There are reason why people are going into the military and i dont think your reasons are good enough. its just my thought

ShyM-X:
Oh ok. Which of the MOD units are you planning to join - the territorial army or the regular army?

Also, are you planning to join as a professional officer (because foreign nationals aren't eligible for normal officer posts)? Or are you planning to join as a cadet or infantry position?

GEJTILL2019: pls ignore the OP ,he is a scammer.

horlajide: My friend forget that thing! When you were singing National anthem and pledge, you didn't know it was reality?
"To serve our Fatherland with....".
"To serve Nigeria with all my strength......"

ShyM-X:
Good luck, brother.

You should pass the barb exam with ease - it's a reasoning test. Go get it, kick some ar.ses, and help put the "Great" back in "Britain."

I might be out there soon as well as an officer(still thinking about it).

If you need any help - shout me.

God save our queen!!

dabrake: maybe he wants to hold a British gun or he will like to kill some people (especially Muslims)

obadiah777: ITS CALLED TOUGH LOVE. THATS WHAT YOU NEED. ALL THESE YES-MEN IN THE FORUM APPLAUDING YOU ARE EITHER HUNGRY PEOPLE ( WHO THINK DYING FOR THE BRITISH IS PROSPERITY ) OR CRAZY PEOPLE. NO SANE NIGERIAN WOULD SUPPORT YOUR DECISION

Tomoarika: @OP follow ur heart. It's not an easy decision to make, i applaud your courage. I have always wanted to join the Royal Navy. Love dat their ceremonial rig (dark blue wit golden insignia). However 2 things have made me give up on dat dream; my only broda has joined d NAF and also i dont want an occupation dat doesnt give me freedom cos i get bored easily. Wish you all d best!

obadiah777: YUP. A CERTIFIED MAD MAN LMAO

50calibre: You want to join the British army that are looking to make some redundancies, how is that even possible?

Besides why would you want to join the British Army and fight stupid wars for greedy politicians who only care about themselves and their families? They keep their sons and daughters at home, and send other people's children to go and fight for them.

obadiah777: DENIED VISA ? I WAS BORN IN DU CANE ROAD HOSPITAL HAMMERSMITH.
AND I REPEAT, YOU ARE CRAZY. I KNOW WHAT IT IS. YOU SEE THE ARMY UNIFORM AND YOU LIKE THE WAY IT LOOKS AND YOU WANT TO WEAR IT. YOU BETTER GO AND JOIN THE BOY SCOUT. THEY HAVE A GOOD LOOKING UNIFORM TOO AND YOU DONT STAND THE RISK OF GETTING YOUR HEAD BLOWN OFF SMDH

Julieccentric: The stress involved in joining Nigerian Army is frustrating enough for me to want to join the British army..

It has absolutely nothing to do with job..I always wanted to serve in the force.

obadiah777: YOU NEED PRAYERS OR A HOT SLAP OR QUARANTINE OR GETTING WHIPPED WITH KOBOKO, ANYTHING TO HELP YOU FIND YOUR LOST MIND SMDH

obadiah777: WHAT WOULD LOOK GOOD ON YOU IS IF YOU START LOOKING FOR THE PART OF YOUR MIND THAT SEEMS LOST. YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY SOME SORT OF CRAZY PERSON. EVEN BRITISH PEOPLE WILL NEVER JOIN THE BRITISH ARMY. ONLY THE CHAVS JOIN. YOU DEY CRASE.

obadiah777: WELL THIS IS DIFFERENT. THIS IS LIKE WORKING FOR THE MAN WHO R-APED YOUR FAMILY AND HATES YOUR GUTS BUT GOODLUCK IN YOUR ERMMM QUEST. DONT FORGET TO DROP US TIDBITS ON NAIRALAND ABOUT YOUR EXPLOITS IN IRAN AND SYRIA

jusRadical: I think that it is either you are confused or that you don't really know what you want in life. You listed your reasons for your intention to join the British Army with pay (money) as #1 but you turned back to say that you worked with an Oil and Gas Co., you had money but no happiness.

Does it not confused you that happiness (job satisfaction) is not even on your list: pay, travel, and education?

obadiah777: SO YOU ARE COMFORTABLE WITH DYING FOR YOUR MASSA ? LWTMB

horlajide: Guy join Nigerian army help fight boko-haram

obadiah777: HOPE YOU ARE READY TO BE DEPLOYED TO SYRIA AND IRAN. WW3 TINZ

lekkie073: how does dat help Nigeria in d fight against bokoharam?

CROWÉ: No offense but there is no way to now that, if that is pessimism please keep it to your self and if you are wishing Nigeria bad I pray you get the same fortune for the next 40 years. mtcheew!

Julieccentric: I want to join the British army.
