“The Nigerian Air Force wishes to emphasise that the entire recruitment process is completely free of charge, and candidates are strongly advised not to make any payment,” the statement added.
The development follows the aptitude test conducted in December 2025, which attracted over 20,000 applicants nationwide and was held across multiple centres, including Sokoto, Kaduna, Enugu, Port Harcourt, and Ikeja, among others.
Ejodame noted that the recruitment process is guided by fairness, transparency, and merit, stressing that selecting qualified personnel remains critical to the Force’s operational effectiveness.
“The Nigerian Air Force remains committed to recruiting the best candidates based on merit, as the quality of personnel is essential to the successful execution of its mandate,” he said.
