Lukas47:


What I know is that Attestation Letter is for those who don't have a university certificate but do have Statement of Result which is long overdue (you graduated between 2009-2016).
Owing to the nature of our public institutions most employers don't expect a recent graduate (2017 - date) to have a university certificate but if your institution has issued yours that's perfect.

Nobody will ask for attestation when a university degree certificate is looking them in the face but if you are going with a statement of result that is more than 2yrs old, I will advice you get an attestation from your institution explaining why you haven't been issued a university degree certificate.

My Thoughts.

So.. Are you saying that if I have my certificate, I can proceed without the Attestation letter? Or I can have both?

You people should stop discouraging applicants with "You will go to war".

It is a well known fact that the Army has not even committed up to ten thousand men per time towards the course of this war and this administration does not consider Nigeria to be at war but to be faced with different kind of insurgency (including BH terrorist).

70% of us who will make it may not see NE immediately after training and all this notion of lead men into battle is just over emphasised here. In any Army in the world including US Army where our kind of ranking is used, it's a "Captain" that leads his team not a lieutenant or 2nd lieutenant that gives a DSSC five years to attain and an SSC seven years to attain only the absence(KIA) of a captain can change the narrative and bring in a lieutenant just as the absence(KIA) of a lieutenant (including 2nd lieutenant) can usher in a sergeant.

For those of us that will be successful, let's be willing to serve irrespective of where they post you.

And stay away from "godfathers" so to speak don't influence posting using them because a time will come when the Army may want to know if you are battle tested before giving you certain commands.

Hmmm. Interesting.

DSSC( Non-combatants). Here we come.

Don't be deceived the reality on ground is that there is acute shortage of man power, I know two course 44 officers that where posted to the north east shortly after the 3 months regimentation course in Taraba.
Infact some course 44 guys have already started piling casualties. Lt Nwoye is one of such, infact go to army ref hospital Kaduna and see things for yourself.
You say Lt don't lead men abi? Ok na!! FYI by default 2nd Lt are in charge of 30men, their welfare depends on him. Even RC guys are posted to the north east not too long after POP talkmore of short service commission that was created solely for the purpose to fill the gap.
Freshly ranked Capt. Tekemeka (May God rest his soul)whose pics was even posted here have being at the fronts since before being KIA.
Some Senior officers even advice their wards not to join because they know better.
The whole idea is not to scare anyone rather it is to prepare every applicant psychologically, for the task ahead many just join because of lack of employment or to where Khaki or think army work is just office things as per officer not knowing that what is ahead is not as rosy as it might seem to be. Not everyone will be posted to the north east at once but before you reach Captain you must have tested that place, now it is rotational even with your godfather, he will retire one day or sent for course abroad that time reality will dawn on such a person.

If anyone had watched Journalist hangout on TVC yesterday, Babajide painted a pic of what's going on, even the son of a very senior commander was court-martialed for abandoning his post with other soldiers when BH launched an offensive, talkmore of people that don't have backup.
If you eventually enter and want to dessert just runaway to another country if not army intelligence will fish you out to face the music.

The young beautiful daughter tho. Like Gen. Ugo rightly said, it's better we Prepare ourselves for the realities on ground. I think it's better not to join than later dessert.

I have one question, why do army wait for Boko Haram or Iswap attack on villages or their base before they return the fight or give a counter fight. Why not take the action to Boko haram in their own terrain. Goodluck Jonathan waited then too like this, and when it was time for election, he assembled all defense chiefs and asked them to take the fight to Boko Haram, and they were well decimated.

The new strategy of creating Super camps is responsible for the recent spike in Bokoharam attacks, the strategy though good on paper is not working in reality, the idea of the super camps is to concentrate forces in a camp so that they will bite harder and crush the enemies anytime they attempt to takeover army bases, this led to the withdrawal of troops from various out posts to form this camp because overtime it has being a strategy for Bokoharam to use what the military calls "High volume violence" which is simply attacking our troops with overwhelming force(a situation where over 500 terrorists will storm an outpost or Military base with not more than 50 to 100men with ammunitions that is not meant for humans( Geneva convention); anti-aircraft guns etc. This birthed the idea of Super camps that is highly mobile, but unfortunately the withdrawal of troops from small outposts gave BHT leeway to operate without restriction.

As for during GEJ he used Southafrican mercenaries (Private military contractors) led by Ebenlow and other specialized units such as 72mobile strike force to liberate many towns. President Buhari didn't like the idea of using PMCs so their contract was terminated.

Wow. You are knowledgeable bro. You really deserve to be in the army. But a radical change is needed, even if nah Private Military contractor. As long as we can go after them and crush them

see the super camp idea would work only if we use it d way D Boko boys use I. E reverse tactics meaning we storm the heart of bokoharam base with 1000 troops and air strikes force I. E their command and control center not seating down and wait for them to attack us on our super camp base

.

Putin007:
Boko Haram get address, if u sabi tell me make I tell burutai.

So army should wait until Boko Haram send in their address? The army send in their address to the private military contractor then? My brother if we should continue these hide and seek strategy of the super camps, scores of our gallant officers will continue to pay the supreme price, avoidably.
