Nigerian Armed Forces (the Army and the Navy)
Nigeria’s Armed Forces consist of the Air Force, Navy, and Army, with the Army being the largest and most well-known of the three.
Its primary mission is to protect Nigeria’s borders and conduct ground combat operations only when necessary.
On the other hand, the Nigerian Navy is the branch of the Nigerian armed forces that protect the country’s maritime boundaries and carry out military operations at sea.
Every year, the commissioned and non-commissioned ranks of the armed forces actively look for recruits.
Officers can join the Nigerian Armed Forces after completing a standard term at the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) or a Direct Short Service Commission, which lets graduates of traditional Nigerian colleges join as officers.
The Direct Short Service in Nigeria hires recent college graduates from the best schools in the country.
In this piece, we will explain the steps necessary to join the Nigerian military as an officer in the Navy or the Army.
How to Join the Nigerian Army
Nigeria’s Direct Short Service recruits recent college grads from the country’s most prestigious educational institutions.
It is done via the purchase of forms and registration on the website, followed by administering examinations in the form of aptitude tests.
After that, those who made the cutoff are invited for screening, which includes tests of physical fitness, mental health, and other aspects of health to ensure that future officers are in excellent condition.
If you currently serve in the military and have been sponsored by the Nigerian Army to attend a traditional university, you can apply for this recruiting.
Requirements for Joining the Army
You must satisfy the following requirements to be eligible for direct short-service recruitment:
- You must be a Nigerian citizen by birth. According to Nigerian law, this is a mandatory prerequisite. In the hierarchy of needs, this is the very first consideration.
- It would be best if you were between the ages of 22 and 35, except for medical consultants, who may be as old as 40.
- You need to be healthy in every way: physically, mentally, and medically. To apply, you must provide a medical certificate issued by a government-approved medical facility as proof of your health status.
- You must provide attestation letters from two credible individuals, such as a Lieutenant Colonel or higher in the armed forces. The applicant’s local government secretary or chairman may also be able to testify to the person’s good character. The people who will sign your letter of attestation must live in the state where you now live, and they must include a photocopy of their passport with their signed letter of attestation.
- You should also include a letter of recommendation from your college(s) of attendance or the college(s) whose certificates you present.
- To be eligible for direct short-service recruiting, males must be at least 1.68 meters and women at 1.65 meters tall.
- You cannot have any military disciplinary record or criminal record from a court of law. You must get an attestation from your commanding officer if you are in the military.
- You must have graduated from an accredited polytechnic or university with a second-class lower degree or lower credit.
- You need a birth certificate validated by the National Population Commission, a local government council, or an approved hospital. If you don’t have your birth certificate or weren’t recorded, you can show proof of your date of birth with an affidavit or declaration of age from a court of law.
- You must also submit a certificate of origin issued by your state.
- You must also provide your National Youth Service completion certificate or exemption letter.
- You will be required to submit proof of registration with a professional organization if you are a member of one; this organization must be recognized under the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
- To complete the application process, you must provide your phone number and the phone numbers of your parents or legal guardian(s) and next of kin.
- An applicant cannot have any visible tattoos or inscriptions.
- You must produce the originals of all of your educational credentials.
- If you currently serve in the military, you must provide a letter of reference from your commanding officer and your military ID. Also required is a letter from the scholarship provider verifying your military sponsorship.
- You cannot belong to any secret society.
If your application is chosen for further consideration, you will be asked to take a written examination.
This exam consists only of multiple-choice questions; one of the easiest ways to pass it is to review previous questions.
Suppose you do well on this test and make the cut. In that case, you will be asked to participate in an intense physical examination that includes running long distances and other challenging exercises to gauge your stress tolerance.
Next, you’ll have to go through a series of tests to figure out how healthy you are physically and mentally.
You can’t apply online for graduate jobs in the Nigerian Army, but you will be able to once they start hiring again.
The Nigerian Army has a webpage at https://www.army.mil.ng/ where you can get additional information.

Hello, i just finished my NYSC having studied History. Can I apply to Nigerian Navy DSSC with a 2:2? And in what category will I fit in under the listed careers on the portal as an History graduate because I didn’t see any career that fit the course I studied and I don’t want to join as a recruit
Unfortunately, based on the current Nigerian Navy DSSC requirements, it seems unlikely you can directly apply with a 2:2 in History. Here’s why:
Minimum Requirement:
1. The official Nigerian Navy website states that applicants with qualifications higher than those specified in the guidelines should not apply. While specific guidelines for each department haven’t been released for the upcoming Batch 35, the previous Batch 34 indicated a minimum of a Second Class Upper Division (2:1) for graduates applying in all categories excluding sportsmen/sportswomen.
Alternative Option:
However, even though there’s no direct “History” category, you might still have options:
1. General Duty (GD): While GD has specific degree requirements in Law, Engineering, and others, some candidates with relevant experience have been accepted even with non-listed degrees. You can consider highlighting any leadership roles, teamwork experience, or skills relevant to the Navy in your application and emphasize your strong performance during NYSC.
2. Support Services: Specific departments within Support Services like Education or Public Affairs might consider your History background depending on their individual needs and advertised criteria. Carefully review the descriptions and requirements for each department within Support Services and see if any align with your skills and interests.
Can i apply for navy dssc with my hnd in mass communication?
Yes, you can apply for the Nigerian Navy DSSC with your HND in Mass Communication, as long as you meet the other eligibility requirements.
The Nigerian Navy lists “Mass Communication” as one of the acceptable qualifications for the Information Officer position in the DSSC program. So, your HND will be considered, but further factors might affect your eligibility:
Additional Requirements:
1. Minimum Class: You must have obtained at least an Upper Credit (HND) or Second Class Upper Division (degree) in your program.
2. Citizenship: You must be a Nigerian citizen by birth or descent.
3. Age: You must be between 22 and 28 years old by the application deadline.
4. Height: Male applicants must be at least 1.68 meters tall, and female applicants must be at least 1.65 meters tall.
6. Other requirements: You will need to meet additional criteria such as medical fitness, physical test, and written/oral examinations.

4. English Language, Mathematics, History, and Literature: This combination is a good option for students who are interested in pursuing a career in the Nigerian Navy’s public affairs or education branches.

Can I get into Nigeria navy force after OND
Yes
1.How long does it take to get shortlisted in Dssc or any paramilitary in Nigeria after applying.

3.What to do after being shortlisted (your personal advice) to be well equipt.
Hello Mike,
1. The shortlist can be out anytime from around three (3) weeks.
2. Your chances with a 2:2 is slim. But it would be best if you gave it a shot, as no minimum academic requirement is stated in the application requirements.
3. After getting shortlisted, the next step is to go for your medical check-up, exercise (mostly jogging), and get advice from those in the system.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
