The Nigerian Defence Academy has cautioned the public against falling victim to fake admission letters being circulated online for the 77 Regular Course.
In a statement released in Kaduna, the academy’s Public Relations Officer, Maj. Reuben Kovangiya, said the attention of the NDA had been drawn to the fraudulent documents, which falsely claim to grant admission into the institution.
Kovangiya said, “The attention of the NDA has been drawn to fraudulent letters currently in circulation, purportedly signed by the academy’s registrar, offering admission into the NDA 77 Regular Course (RC).
“The NDA wishes to state unequivocally that the letters circulating are not only fake but obviously the antics of fraudsters, whose sole intention is to defraud unsuspecting members of the public.
“Members of the public are hereby informed that the approved admission list of successful candidates and reserves for 77 RC was published in the Daily Trust and Daily Sun Newspapers of Aug. 19, 2025, and on the NDA’s official website: www.nda.edu.ng.
“Successful candidates of the 77 RC had since resumed, and its admission process had been concluded.”
The NDA spokesman urged Nigerians to ignore any letters, messages or communications claiming to offer admission into the academy outside the official process.
He further advised that all admission-related information should always be verified through the appropriate channel, adding, “It is most instructive to always verify admission information from the Office of the academy’s Registrar, [email protected].”
