Meet Ada—a fresh graduate, her degree still warm from the printer, dreaming of purpose beyond CVs and job portals. When she heard the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) was inviting graduates and professionals to join the DSSC 34/2025, her heart did a fly-over.
What if I could trade coffee shop emails for camouflage and command?, she thought.
Then she found the official news: applications open August 27 to October 7, 2025, via the NAF recruitment portal. And best of all—it’s free.
