Nigeria Army engages school students on military career paths at ENODAB Rainbow School and Sky Top College in Ikorodu Lagos on 2024.

The Nigerian Army has announced 2025 screening exercises to provide education sponsorship for children of its deceased personnel.

The screening, intended for the 2024/2025 academic session, is for children of decesed soldiers who died in active service.

In a statement issued through the National Orientation Agency (NOA), the army said the screening would occur across the country’s six geopolitical zones and Abuja from 8 February to 17 March 2025.

It said the initiative is open to new applicants, existing beneficiaries seeking to upgrade, and those who missed the screening in 2024.

The army said the initiative aims to guarantee access to quality education at the primary, secondary, and tertiary levels.

It said the scheme is part of its welfare package for the families of personnel who lost their lives in active service.

The verification process will be held at designated military headquarters in Port Harcourt, Enugu, Ibadan, Bauchi, Kaduna, and Abuja, ensuring accessibility for applicants nationwide.
