Good day to you all.

Last year, I completed my NYSC service and graduated from the university with a third-class degree. I have always had a passion for military service and, before graduation, I have been applying for several roles within the Navy, Army, and Air Force. I am delighted to say that I have been shortlisted for the Army after I applied again few months ago. Although my mother is not pleased with this career choice, she keeps saying I should have applied for short service and not with OLEVEL, But I graduated with a 3rd class, although my siblings and father support my decision.

Luckily for me, I was shortlisted to go for training in a month time, I don't know if I should proceed with the training or just stay back at home because the decision isn't going well with my mom and With the current unemployment crisis in the country, I am just totally confused and don't want to miss the opportunity. What advice can you give 😢😢
