The Nigerian Army has selected 800 youths from Delta State for screening as part of the 92 Regular Recruit Intake (92 RRI) process. Dr. Latimore Oghenesivbe, the Director-General of the Delta State Bureau for Orientation and Communications, announced the selection on Wednesday in Asaba. This outcome is attributed to increased public awareness, consistent sensitization, and extensive media coverage by the state government via the bureau.
Oghenesivbe emphasized that this outcome demonstrates the effectiveness of the state government's commitment to public enlightenment and strategic communication, particularly in motivating young people to pursue legitimate employment opportunities. He praised Governor Sheriff Oborevwori for his dedication to creating employment opportunities and enhancing the socioeconomic status of Delta youths, highlighting the state's M.O.R.E Agenda which emphasizes human capital development, youth empowerment, and pathways to becoming responsible citizens.
Joining the Nigerian Army, according to Oghenesivbe, offers more than just employment; it provides a structured career path, professional training, discipline, leadership development, and opportunities for advancement. The military also offers regular remuneration, allowances, healthcare, educational opportunities, professional development, and career progression.
Recently, the welfare framework for military personnel has been improved, with salary and allowance increases across the armed forces, making military service an even more attractive career option for eligible young Nigerians.
Oghenesivbe urged the shortlisted applicants to take the state screening exercise seriously, maintain focus, and strictly follow the official recruitment guidelines. He also urged applicants to ensure all relevant documents and credentials are properly arranged, attend the designated screening venue, and conduct themselves with discipline, honesty, and decorum throughout the process. The army recruitment is merit-based, and no individual can guarantee automatic enlistment.
