I ran today and my body enjoyed it.. ran about 4.5kms today..

AirmanB:
I noticed something, none of them had "yellow" shoulder tags.

Even d award winning cadet officers for "SSC" who, normally are under Ashanti, also didn't wear "yellow" shoulder tags. It kept me wondering, if dey had given dis excellent SSC cadet anoda battalion to go into.

the ones that got the awards had cadet appointments.. so they wore their ranks instead of the yellow bars

AirmanB:
No offense, boss. If u check d video again, u will notice dat dey had 5 bars on their shoulders.... Abi Dem carry 5th termer shoulder tags give Dem?

maybe they picked 5th termers.. my general point was it wasn’t only passing out cadets that did the drill

Na Morse code I just learn finish..

nora2018:
when I was about signing my form for SSC 46 prior to the release of the first shortlistment in 82 division Enugu the colonel looked at my form and shouted short service!!!! Young man do you know what you are about going into? May God be with you. till dated I still wondered why he said that......

lol they will say if we talk that we are discouraging people from applying..but anything anybody’s eyes see in the service, let their body take it like that..

abiodunalasa:

Arisukuni:
This Silent drill na bastard o , I say make I watch just little from the video I didn't know how I ended watching all. I think this is the first time am watching the silent drill at length.

The question is are SSC amongst those cadets doing the silent drill? Because the way I dey take see the silent drill, I see it as something that will take more than 9 months to perfect it. Its a drill that you must learn by heart and mind. The drill no be child play at all.

Can we talk about this above to keep the thread Alive?

The silent drill ma sef no be passing out cadets do am.. na regulars from terms 2-4 do am..
SSC still Dey try perfect Normal parade drills sef talkless of silent

Dannyhonda:
My own two cent, if truly u passionate about the military. Recruit form don dey for years!!!!! Then after some years u go back to school. If we are been sincere, most of us get objective, e pass this passion of a thing. Some of us its the pride of wearing a uniform, some to brag, some to toast, some to oppress others e.t c. Its easier said than done, once u enter within 10 years the job for don tire u.

10 years keh.. you know how many SSC officers disappear from service after 2/3/4 years in the job..

Prospect048:
tor... For passion sake alone, I think RRI is the best since it is even less competitive sef

ive had my fair share of applying RRI.. I was not picked that’s why I tried nda.. conditions held me there that’s why I’m trying SSC now..

Prospect048:
Some people sef, you dey claim say na passion make you want join army, yet you dey here dey hustle for complement, oga don't let us deceive ourselves, if truly na passion, go for RRI, thank God if your are 35yrs, you can still apply for it, RRI is the best form to join the army if it ud because of passion alone oh...

Baba nobody was here hustling for compliment.. we were have a discussion and we got stuck on a particular phase of the argument.. I repeat nobody was hustling for it.. we were only stating facts about the job.. peace

eclipsehemmy:
not three months o....Ikeja cantonment only has nepa light for 2-3hrs per day ... 8pm-11pm for two years plus now. No be small thing o.we don suffer for NEPA hand for ikeja. Na recently the light turn 3hrs

QuadrilAyinde:
Nah True talk actually sha sey Everybody get wetin be his/her goal and Aim for obtaining the form... One thing wey I know be sey Nah Even Right from Shortlisting for Exam those wey just apply for Applying sake go don dey commot themselves small small...

I want to blv that the passion go come Naturally if U decide to honor the Invite for Tamraining and You are able to survive the Training Rigours

And on the flip side, it seems Uniform Jobs like the Military and Paramilitary e.g Immigration seems to have a Favorable and more reliable Career path... Its easy for U to project that ALL OTHER THINGS BEING EQUAL, IN THE NEXT XXXX YEARS, U SHOULD BE IN THIS SO SO SO RANK Unlike Random Office Jobs

Whichever Way sha, All is wel

lol people come for screening sef and run the next day...some people will finish the screening process and not resume even when their name is on the final list.. dem plenty.. they just applied for applications sake.

Taiwolee1:

God go reward you..

QuadrilAyinde:
Career development is better in Army brother... Juicy appointments for FIRS nah by Appointment and 6G connect

Lmao.. and the army is different especially as an SSC Officer again?

Some guys here think everyone is a fresh graduate and don’t have anything doing that’s why they applying.. there are some guys here who I’m in personal talks with..if dem gree I’ll mention their monikers..doing very well.. person for here Dey collect almost 500k monthly..and we are currently building some apps together at the moment

hammariise:
I'm into tech, plug me abeg. Thanks

what do you do? What part of tech please?

autamahmud:
Gbam, they are just here shouting not for the money or power, why not just tell them not to pay you at all or go and join the RRI. the passion only cums in with time but for now deep down, you are all going in for the money and power involved

i ask you again, which money? It’s obvious many of us have not worked at all and if we have, not worked a good paying job.. that’s why you think there’s “money” in the army..
My first job after I left nysc was with the Vice Presidents office in Abuja.. there was money and the ID card was power..ID card that’ll grant me access into halls when captains would be sitting outside..
so I ask you again, which money?

Oluwaseyi12:
We should stop decieving ourselves..What was our initial reason for sponsoring ourselves to higher Institutions? or why did our parents sponsored us to higher Institutions?Was it out of attainment of good living..I have ratings in the Nigerian Navy that are holders of ND and HND respectively... What are we now saying... It's high time we started considering some of the lapses in our country.. Wether Army,Navy and Airforce everything still revolves around what you get in returns for ur selfless service

First thing, nobody would do it for free because we expect returns for work done, but it’s not the major reason why most of the people I know want to enlist.. the army sometimes lives in the poorest of conditions.. take ikeja cantonment for example.. Nepal has cut their light... they only have light for 2 hours everyday for the last 3 months..what’s the use of the money then? It is a call to serve first! Service rendered requires payment.. so it’s not first about the money, because there’s really no money there if we must be honest.. my younger sister that’s a devops engineer earns what a major earns and she’s just 22.

After which I asked for his blessing to try the army again and he finally granted to me but with clause..
He has always told me to never go for army SSC/Dssc but last last he said I should go cos I don’t listen to them, but he has made it clear that his hands are not there

My own is if you join the military for money, you’ll bring yourself out.. my cousin in the navy and I were having a discussion last week about why he hated Nigerian army short service officers so much...mind you he’s a lieutenant in the navy..which is the equivalent of a captain in the Nigerian army..

All these ones wey their problem na money, they will see it.. you go know person wey him own na money.. how much is the 180k?
There are civil jobs that will pay you way more and you won’t have to go through the inhumanity and grief of training.. if you are in tech, I fit plug you to better jobs.. no go waste person slot abeg.

The exam might most likely be written on the last Saturday of the month.. which is the 31st.. last day of the month of October.

In a way if this protests do not stop soon, it’ll affect the exams ish cos if dem block road, you won’t be able to write

shamack:
