You're very correct, this very one is even Generals and big men children that use to occupy the slots. But I wish I be medical Doctor na Major straight be that ooo

please, what about SSC(short service combatant)? my course is not listed under DSSC. is there going to be registration for SSC? i have a degree in botany

They should pack all these useless abokiis loitering everywhere into the army and send them to go and fight in Somalia or Yemen. We can call them the foreign legion of the Nigerian army

Not medical doctor. The rank of a major is for medical consultant. Medical doctor will also get the rank of a Lieutenant
