The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has issued a warning to the public about a fake social media message circulating that falsely claims the force has begun recruiting for its 2025/2026 Basic Military Training Course (BMTC) and Direct Short Service Commission (DSSC).
In a statement released on Thursday, Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame, the Director of Public Relations and Information for the NAF, urged the public to disregard these messages entirely, clarifying that no such recruitment exercise is currently in progress.
“The attention of the Nigerian Air Force has been drawn to fraudulent messages circulating online, falsely claiming that the NAF has commenced recruitment for the 2025/2026 BMTC and DSSC. 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,” the statement partly read.

Ejodame further clarified that the NAF’s recruitment process is entirely free, transparent, and based strictly on merit.
He emphasized that the force never charges applicants at any stage of the process, nor does it use third-party agents or middlemen.
Ejodame assured the public that any legitimate recruitment exercise would be extensively publicized through credible national newspapers, the NAF’s official website, and its verified social media channels.
“We therefore urge members of the public to be wary of online scams and exercise extreme caution when coming across unofficial recruitment advertisements,” he added.
