The Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) has announced the postponement of the screening test for candidates of the 77 Regular Course, initially scheduled to hold on Saturday, 24 May 2025.
According to an official signed statement by Major Mohammed Maidawa, Public Relations Officer, Nigerian Defence Academy, the decision follows the recent announcement by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) concerning the rescheduling of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) for candidates in certain parts of the country.
The NDA stated that the postponement was necessary to ensure that no candidate is disenfranchised and that all applicants are given equal opportunity in the admissions process.
“A new date for the screening test will be announced in due course,” the statement read.
Reaffirming its commitment to transparency and fairness, the NDA assured the public that it remains dedicated to upholding the integrity of its admissions process.
Candidates and members of the public are advised to follow the Academy’s official social media platforms and visit the NDA portal regularly for updates.
