It was 3.2km race..........1.6km to and fro

For nda it's not a to and fro thing. It's a race from the gate of the sport arena(close to where there horses are kept) then you go round the old nda and enter the gate back.

ugo4u:

I just de laff when I read some comments here, Army fit decide to do screening on Xmas day and nothing go happen, many people don't know that nothing like holiday for military, you can only get pass which is not even guaranteed sef.
Visited an officer sometimes last month, was told he went for a meeting so I waited for like 4hrs no sign of him showing up and it was almost 4pm. I thought they usually close by 4pm like most government parastatals, so I told the P.A that I'll have to be leaving cos it was almost time for closing. She looked at me and smiled, she said they don't have closing time o, that they close by 7pm, 8pm etc at the discretion of the Oga.
As we are speakingtyping they might release the list this night and tell everyone to assemble in new year day. Army work na madman job.

Lolz......very true .....no closing time .

The NAF selection board screened candidates until 12midnight,and retired for the day when they were tired......our bumbum were glued to the ground while we wait for our turn....

Military has resumption time ,but no closing time......your pass can even be cancelled,as we saw a flight lieutenant and squadron leader complaining to an air comodore that they were suppose to get a day pass after the first screening but it was cancelled......

Okay...not disputing your fact.....I'm just stating what happened at NAF screening.

Gisbourne44:


The time is to make the race in 18mins for guys, 21 I think for ladies.. Ladies are always released before the guys..

Once it's 18".. They shut the gate.. Who doesn't make it goes home.

lol. None of my brothers is coming home this Chrismas. They say no pass for them. They missed my granny burial few years ago. Once you are in that uniform, your freedom is taken away from you.
I last saw my brother 'the one at Sambisa' in 2015.

See what corrupt politicians have cuased. No jobs. Many won't join the military if there were jobs.

I read about an Ameriacan guy who was jailed or about to be jailed becaused he refused to join US military. I think the guy was Mohammed Ali the boxer.

Here in Naija we the beg to join.

Naija shall be great again.

What they do now especially for SSC/DSSC is categorising the candidates according to the time they finish the race. There are three batches/Box say Box A(People that complete the race within the specified time maybe 15/18mins) they get the maximum score, Batch/Box B(May get say 6/7 points) while people that enter the last box will score zero.

2yrs ago in SSC 44 board interview my colleague entered the 4th box. He's an officer today but he likes army with passion prior to that time he was an accountant.

If you truly like the job, one way or another, the system will favor you.

Lol. There are sloppy areas and hilly areas along the route..you just need to know when to open up and when to slow down

But what you must not do is stop at any time.

"Candidates!! Sit up!"

Turns around and pays a packard compliment

Sir, can i have your gallant permission to stand easy!

Its a pleasure having you on this thread, sir.

Your coursemate made my stay in Kaduna very memorable. I admire his gallantry, confidence and charisma he exudes. Even the soldiers trembled in his presence. He served me german dose so well that even my village people that followed me into NDA abandoned me.

Kindly extend my esteemed regards to him.

God bless the Army Captains

Good morning Bros, sorry, I noticed that in your article you mentioned that the army even prefers candidates younger than the stipulated 24 years for SSC, can I apply for the next program as I am current 22?

Of cause you can try if you have the necessary academics documents, but most likely you would be 24 or approaching 24 by next Army enlistment

About the pile (I mean the anus shoot out pile LOL), what if someone has had it before and has been treated? can that person still be disqualified? cos I heard they can detect your pile history or something mere bending..
