Thank you Sir. You can spice our cakes by giving us tips on how to prepare. What to have in mind. Things to purchase which are not in the prospectus the Navy released today, best time to arrive from the 5th - 9th.

We would appreciate Nna. Thank you Sir!

Congrats to the successful guys. Now comes the real deal....Training.
First of all, attune your mind quickly to the job ahead. Psychologically, be prepared. Your resolve will be tested, your endurance stretched. But just remember, your mind fails LONG BEFORE your body. You've made it this far, you'll make it to the end.

Have enough whites. That number given in the prospectus is nothing. Have at least 2 pairs of the white trainers, but keep money to buy more. Try and avoid those flat tennis shoes....jogging long distance with those ones will give you issues really quickly.

Leave your big phones at home...you won't need them, and phones are not allowed. Bring only the one that you're ready to submit at the gate. If you're caught with a phone after you cross that gate, too bad for you.

I would advice to resume on the first day, but don't be the first. Coming late leaves you really confused for a long time.

Bring a hard cover noted to be used when lectures start. Deodorants also useful so that u don't always smell like tatashe. Everybody (men and women) should bring clippers. You will need them almost everyday. But scrape your hair to skin before you resume...I mean real skin.

Come with some money to get few provisions for 3 months, and bring your ATM also.

Bring enough passports to last a long time. I advice you snap it in your skin cut with white T shirt and blue background. Any other passport will soon be useless.

Bring swimming trunks. Those who forget theirs will be made to buy it at camp, at a price you may not like.

Guys, bring shaving sticks. You can be made to shave any stray facial hair even on parade ground, so be prepared.

Bring a small table top alarm clock if you can.

A small bottle of essential balm or agboniki may be useful sometimes. Don't forget your slippers.

Have some small hand towels that u can sacrifice for cleanship...or you may end up using your whites for that. Also bring at least 2 packs of white handkerchiefs. It forms part of your uniform.

Bring small pocket jotters that can enter your pocket. You'll need it.

Bring enough socks that you can always change and keep your feet dry. Then also bring Funbact A cream in case the inevitable foot infection happens.

I'll post more if I remember.

Wuyep entered the Nigerian military as an officer cadet in 1970 and was commissioned into the Nigerian Air Force in 1973. Wuyep completed his primary flying training in Kaduna Nigeria and gained his wings after training with the United States Air Force[1] at Vance Air Force Base.[2] As a trained pilot, Wuyep flew both jet and transport aircraft although most of his flying career was spent on the C-130 Hercules. This included airlift operations in Eastern and Southern Africa in support of the independence movements in Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Namibia as well as missions in support of the United Nations Peace-Keeping Force in Lebanon. In 1980, Wuyep attended the Junior Command and Staff College in Pakistan and from 1983 to 1984 he undertook the Senior Staff Course at the Armed Forces Command and Staff College, Jaji.[1]

By 1994, Wuyep had been promoted to Group Captain and was appointed the Commander of 301 Flying Training School in Kaduna. He was then successively appointed the Senior Air Staff Officer at Tactical Air Command's headquarters, the Director of Operations and Air Officer Commanding Training Command. From June 2000 to April 2001, Wuyep served as Air Officer Operations.[1]

In April 2001 Wuyep was made Chief of the Air Staff, the senior appointment in the Nigerian Air Force and he was promoted Air Marshal on 1 October 2001.[1] Following the Nigerian Air Force's receipt of a 3 million US dollars aid package in the form of American C-130 spare parts, Wuyep called for a yet closer relationship between the Nigerian Air Force and the United States Air Force. Wuyep acknowledged that development of the oil and gas in the Gulf of Guinea could be mutually beneficial to both Nigeria and the United States. Wuyep also expressing his hope that the former training program for Nigerian aircrew with the US Air Force would be restored.[2] In May 2006, Wuyep was unexpectedly dismissed as Chief of the Air Staff by President Olusegun Obasanjo. Wuyep was succeeded by Air Marshal Paul Dike.[3]

DSSC officers in the Airforce produce more of Chief of Air Staff cos they are the most qualify Pilot. They are professional Pilot b4 they joined the Airforce. The RC in Airforce are still coming up.
In the Navy we hv very few DSSC as Rear admirals but hv Much more as Commodores(1 star General) But we hv more as Navy Captains and below and they Command Vessels too. Anybody can steer a vessel wit the right training.
Rear Admiral Ferguson Bobai is not DSSC and he is not NDA too. They are unique regulars call the Onuras. They hv 6 sets of Onuras. Onura 01 to Onura 06. And they are much as Rear Admirals and Commodores.

piscesgem:


Please don't say what you don't know, because pijay said it doesn't make it true, sodiq abubakar spent 3 years in NDA as a cadet, forget if he got diploma or any qualifications from ABU most of his course mates did also, cos NDA was not awarding degrees then, NDA only became a degree awarding institution circa 1988, didn't ihejirika also got a degree from ABU?. Does that make him a SSC or DSSC officer in the army
