The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has warned the public concerning the fraudulent messages circulating online, falsely claiming that the NAF has commenced recruitment for the 2025/2026 Basic Military Training Course (BMTC) and Direct Short Service Commission (DSSC).
In a statement, the Director of Public Relations and Information of NAF Headquarters, Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame, said that the Nigerian Air Force wishes to state that no such recruitment exercise is currently ongoing.
“The public is therefore advised to disregard these messages in their entirety,” he added.
He reminded the general public that the Nigerian Air Force recruitment and enlistment processes are free, transparent, and merit-based.
According to him, the NAF does not charge any fee at any stage of its recruitment exercise, and does not engage third parties or agents for enlistment.
“Whenever a recruitment exercise is to be conducted, it will be officially announced and widely publicised through credible national dailies, the NAF official website, and its verified social media platforms,” he said.
He therefore urged members of the public to be wary of online scams and exercise extreme caution when coming across unofficial recruitment advertisements.
According to him, for accurate and up-to-date information regarding the Nigerian Air Force, the public is advised to follow only the official NAF communication channels using the following links:
