Delta Government Urges Youths to Enrol in Nigerian Defence Academy

The Delta State Government has issued a passionate appeal to qualified indigenes of the state, encouraging them to apply for the 78th Regular Course intake of the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA).

This recruitment drive represents a significant opportunity for young Deltans to pursue careers in the nation's military services whilst contributing to national security and defence.

The Nigerian Defence Academy, located in Kaduna, remains the premier institution for training officers for the Nigerian Army, Navy, and Air Force. Admission into the 78th Regular Course offers successful candidates comprehensive military education and commissioning as officers upon graduation.

State officials have emphasised the importance of Delta youths taking advantage of this opportunity to serve the nation whilst securing their future through quality military education and training.

Interested applicants are expected to meet the requisite qualifications for NDA admission, which typically include educational requirements, physical fitness standards, and medical fitness criteria.

The call comes as part of broader efforts to ensure adequate representation of Delta State indigenes in the nation's armed forces and to provide career opportunities for the state's teeming youth population.
