Cadets of 67 Regular Course Undergo Orientation Exercise

A three â€“ day Orientation exercise for cadets of 67 Regular Course of the Nigerian Defence Academy has ended successfully with the registration of first semester academic courses.

In separate remarks delivered by Principal Staff Officers of the Academic Branch, including the Academy Provost, Professor AS Nwankwo, the cadets were charged to avoid distractions and focus entirely on the pursuit of the training at the Academy. They were further encouraged to show wisdom in the choices they make on their journey towards becoming commissioned officers in the Nigerian Armed Forces. According to Professor Nwankwo, the cadetsâ€™ training at the Academy will test the limits of their endurance. Hence, they must remain prayerful and courageous towards confronting the challenges that would confront them. Furthermore, he admonished them to stay out of trouble if their dream of gaining a Presidential Commission into the armed forces is to be actualized.

The Orientation exercise which was organized by the Academic Branch, was aimed exposing the cadets to all the important aspects of their academic training in the Nigerian Defence Academy, as well as provide them proper guidance on the expected conduct for cadets in the Academy. Within the period of the event, the cadets were briefed on the activities of the Academic Branch, courses available to them, registration processes, rules and regulations governing examinations, among others. Following the briefing, the cadets were conducted on a tour round facilities within the Academic Branch and the Academy Library.
