‘Not from us’ – Nigerian Navy disowns recruitment notice

The Nigerian Navy has categorically denied that a social media notice announcing its 2026 Batch 39 recruitment exercise is genuine. The Navy issued a statement on Monday in Abuja by Capt. Abiodun Folorunsho, the Director of Naval Information. He described the circulating information as unauthorized and cautioned the public against relying on it.

The Navy urged potential applicants to be wary of recruitment-related information found on unofficial social media accounts, websites, and other unauthorized sources. Authentic details regarding Navy recruitment, including eligibility criteria, application procedures, timelines, and available categories, will only be disseminated through the service's authorized communication channels.

The Navy emphasized that the purported 2026 Batch 39 recruitment notice circulating on social media is not official and should not be trusted. Prospective applicants and the public are advised to disregard recruitment information obtained from unofficial sources. The official website for Nigerian Navy recruitment or enlistment is http://joinnigeriannavy.navy.mil.ng.
