A job vacancy highly plagued by corruption and man-know-man tactics? I believe it will prove a bane not because it reduces your combat ability but because, the less non-Northeners they recruit, the more Northerners they can employ.
We all know the armed forces is one occupation 'those people' now take as their birth right.

Re: Tattoos And Enlistment In The Nigerian Army by youngnerd: 6:58am On May 22, 2018

Re: Tattoos And Enlistment In The Nigerian Army by MANNABBQGRILLS: 6:58am On May 22, 2018
Not in Naija!!
But i was so surprised to see Doctors, Bankers, Civil servants with tatoos (some with sleeve tatoos, those kinda tatoos that runs all over the arms like a shirt sleeve) and guys (working in offices) on long dreadlocks in Yankee!!

As long as you know your job and know what you are doing, you are good to go over there.

But in my darling country, you must be in a secret cult, if you have a tatoo!!

It must be a hidden tattoo,meaning it must not be visible

Re: Tattoos And Enlistment In The Nigerian Army by Brownville007: 7:06am On May 22, 2018
There is a unit of the army that wears tatoo. Mostly special forces but definitely not as a recruit
Re: Tattoos And Enlistment In The Nigerian Army by almajiri101: 7:07am On May 22, 2018
It's allowed only if you are connected because those greedy officers would see it as an excuse to substitute your name for their candidate if you got no connection but if you do get one, bro ride on.
Re: Tattoos And Enlistment In The Nigerian Army by Ndkings1(m): 7:08am On May 22, 2018
You would be disqualified immediately you are seen with it. In fact they won't even let you in
Re: Tattoos And Enlistment In The Nigerian Army by Zane2point4(m): 7:10am On May 22, 2018

You can go bitter all you want we educated Southerners knows that the North is about three quarter of Nigeria thus their prevalence every where.

And pls get your bitter soul some education... In the Military right from NDA and NMS Admission /Recruitment is usually equal between and among every state in Nigeria.
Like if they are taking 10 candidates, it is 10 candidates all round.

You need Jesus and education, so you can stop this bitterness in your life.
Good day.
