2.Protection:



 Are you afraid of ending up marrying a wife beater, a military man is not one, in fact there In military regulations, it is a serious offence for a military man to beat his wife, when such case is reported, his commanding officer will call him to order through numerous means which could involve days in the guard room, all the pay of such personnel diverted to his wife account, a serious and monitorable apology to his wife before he is being forgiven. In fact part of a soldier training is to protect you  that's why he is given the sword of honor on the wedding day, meanwhile for external protection, in a harsh and hostile country like Nigeria, who dares mess up with a military man wife most especially when she isn’t at fault, she married a warrior and she is already one by virtue of blood. A military Spouse carry a invincible mark which says, military zone, woe betide that person who fail to see that and trespass. 

    How about your children, especially females, no one try shitty things or sexually offensive thing against them. Your children learn to be disciplined at an early age. 


3.Loyalty:

   



  These are men who swore to protect their country with their lives, they are men of sacrifice, Politicians talk loyalty and patriotism but it’s the military that live such kind of life, they know what sacrifice means, therefore they know all the sacrifice involved on the part of their spouse; the lonely days when the  husband is deployed for too long, the sleepless night, fasting and prayers for his safety, taking care of the children all alone while husband is at the line of duty, the relocation stress from one base to another having to start life all over again.

12 Reasons why Nigerian Defence Academy is different from your regular university.

Why Nigerian defence academy is different from your regular university, using the Regular combatant process as a case study.


1.Admission chance: 

Prepare for NDA exam


Its more easy to get admitted in a normal university in Nigeria than to get admission in the NDA, the process  is tough, there are lot of screening process to trim down the large number of applicants until the final list, furthermore according to normal standards your jamb scores boost your chance of getting admitted in a normal university after the Post UTME, but in the NDA, the Jamb scores only give you a chance to write the entrance exam/test as long as you meet the cut off  mark , you are qualified to write the Entrance Exam (EE) after which your jamb score are not much relevant in the admission process. 

2.Year one: 


In the regular university, your year one as a freshman or fresher, you may look crude or rather innocent, then your matriculation , you celebrate it in style with pictures , exotic make up, even a small party, trust me, you will be in good mood. 

The difference is much in your first year in the Nigeria defence academy, your year as a termer one cadet, a clown! A labour force! You will nearly give up, especially through the first 3 or 6 months of  prep wing where your body system is just getting acquainted with military lifestyle, you will probably loose weight  due to the daily gruesome back to back endurance run, your skin color will change as your bath has to be taken in a rush, you will be sleep deprived so much that any little free time is spent spending a sharp sleep called cutting 5, Many year one cadets sleep most times during their matriculation ceremony, and when the family comes visiting you only have few time to spend with them that day before reporting back, your life is so regimented.

3.Bureaucracy/seniority: in a regular university, 100 level students may not really respect 200 level students so much, we have even heard stories of 200 level students dragging a girlfriend with a 300 level student, the seniority system is low and thin and people don’t really care much.



But in NDA, junior cadets not only respect senior cadets, they fear them and in some cases, even avoid them! Honestly life in the academy is hostile, especially for junior cadets. From your day one as a clown, you will suffer untold hardship and drilling, puttee from senior cadets, even illegal puttee from some malicious cadets that you can barely report to officers. You don’t disobey senior cadet’s order, you don’t dare argue with one or else what will happen to you can’t be written in English language.


4.Process: in a normal university, the higher you advance in class, the more your experience, and the more you can likely pull some stunts against the system, same thing in the NDA with a little difference, the more you advance in bars (class) the more your experience. The lesser your s
