Nigerians Warned: Don’t Get Recruited to Fight in Foreign Wars

Article Featured Image

The Federal Government has sent a serious warning to Nigerians. Many young people are getting recruited to fight in wars in other countries, especially in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. They enter into this trap by falling for fake offers from recruitment agencies.

These offers are often dangerous and could put lives at risk. It is reported that some Nigerians are promised jobs with good salaries, education, and even fast-track citizenship. But when they accept, the story changes. They are sometimes forced into war, sent abroad without proper documents, or made to sign contracts in languages they cannot read. It is sad to know that, at least two Nigerians have died because they were fighting in Ukraine.


Omooo, this matter get as e be ooo


Investigations show that they even collect passports or travel document from some victims and force them to fight abroad.

Officials have repeated that joining a foreign war without the government’s knowledge is illegal and could lead to serious outcome, including arrest, injury, or death. They are asking citizens to be very careful before accepting any overseas job offer. If you are thinking about working or traveling abroad, always pass through the official channels. Don’t let fake promises of money or citizenship lead you into danger.


Remember: your life is more valuable than any overseas job. Stay safe, check carefully, and avoid recruitment scams.

Shine your eyes make them no use your head.


Stay aware. Stay informed.
