Nigerian Army 86RRI Recruitment Form And Portal
The ongoing recruitment in the Nigerian Army, known as the 86RRI, is currently in progress. This process is similar to the previous one, but with a few changes in registration. Let’s explore how to apply for the Nigerian Army 86RRI and the necessary requirements.
Before delving into the requirements, it’s essential to clarify that the Nigerian Army 86RRI is not for graduates; it’s intended for SSCE certificate holders, NCE, and ND. Graduates interested in joining the Nigerian Army should refer to our earlier guide on this topic.
Additionally, the 86RRI has two categories: Tradesmen and Non-Tradesmen. Tradesmen require a trade test and certificate, while Non-Tradesmen only need an SSCE certificate. Understanding the distinction between these categories is crucial.
For those who may not qualify for the 86 RRI recruitment, it’s advisable to consider applying for the Nigerian Navy or Air Force recruitments, both being part of the military.
It’s worth noting that graduates entering the Nigerian Army receive higher pay than those who join through regular recruit intake. Detailed information on the Nigerian Armys salary, ranks, and allowances can be found in our previous post. HERE
