Am glad I brought ds age ish up.....Its always stated in their requirements so I know ....sm one was sent home cos he was still on the nysc programme wen he applied though he ve already passed out before d screening...yea they re that strict..why do u think they won't be strict on age limit
wen they clearly stated its minimuim 22 for dssc and 24 for ssc....

mustiusman:


Bro for SSC , you're over age, it 24-29 years of age, so you need to reduce your age to suit you but make sure you do
that wisely, for dssc, if your course is advertised, you're in, it 22-35. All the best

Pls how should i go about it, cos some are saying they do not accept court affidavit, please put me through, i don't want to make mistakes

The date only God knows. Hmmm

if i were to be asked this question: "of all the aspirants on nairaland who really really wants the serve the country under the army?" i would say "Marcus013"

Your zeal is admirable. While most of us are waiting to achieve the enviable post of officer cadets, you are already climbing the army ladder by first becoming a soldier (strictly speaking). kudos!

being a soldier affords you 2 chances at becoming a commissioned officer.

1. with the blessing and approval of your commander (who will sign your attestation document and probably give you a "written note" to tender to the recruitment officers if u have been a good soldier to him), you can easily be shortlisted to become an officer cadet

2. As a soldier, you can be fortunate enough to run professional courses in army accredited higher institutions such as Medical school in Ojo barracks, Nursing school in Yaba, Ordinance school, Accounting school etc, that will give you better chances at becoming an officer.

you have to be extremely loyal to your commanders si they can recommend u.

But i must be very blunt with you. The life of a soldier is not a rosy one at all. Your pride, ego and person will be trampled and stepped upon. especially as a rating, officers and even soldiers higher than u will regard u as a nobody, a piece of thrash. you will get locked up at the slightest offence. Most times, newly recruited soldiers head to battlefield from the training camps. some of them get killed without seeing their loved ones as a military personnell.

Are you ready to cope with all that??

If yes, then go ahead. be humble and extremely loyal to your superiors and sky will be your springboard!

@Marcus. Odinmbanamdi has said it all. U seems to like the military very well. There re some of my friends here on this thread who have contemplated that. though it was you who took a bold step of action. It however mostly depends on your commanding officer and God on your side. I ll advice that you go and see things there for your self and wait to see whether you ll be shortlisted finally for training. Between then and now, you can now think thoroughly about it and seek for more advice.

If I may say, I think there is also a time frame before you can convert. You can't just enter today and expect to convert next year or even 2years time.

@Marcus, the Army will not recorgnize any certificate u have bt fail to declare or tender at the point of entry. Ur conversion will be based on post entry qualifications. I salute ur courage bt u really need to knw what is at stake. However, that is better than ending up as a civilian.

i forgot to emphasize that the conversion wont be instant. you have work for some years before your current commander will grant you approval. thats why you see matured men in their 40s being just a Lieutenant. they were once soldier before getting commissioned. i know an officer in the medical corps who rose to the rank of a staff sergeant in the soldiers cadre before he got commissioned. he is 42years and just a Lieutenant (2 stars)

however you, without the knowledge of your commander, keep trying to get recruited into the officers cadre subsequent years.

Pls I want to ask dat if someone is commissioned at d age of 33-35. Is it possible for d person to become a general? Thanks
