Nollywood actor Joseph Momodu has disclosed that he has been receiving numerous direct messages from Nigerians seeking information about how they can join the United States Army, following his experience serving in the U.S. military.
The actor said the volume of inquiries from Nigerians interested in pursuing a similar path prompted him to address some of the questions and provide guidance on the process.
According to Momodu, many of those who have contacted him are interested in understanding the eligibility requirements, application process and other steps involved in joining the U.S. Army.
He advised interested individuals to first understand the official requirements and procedures rather than relying on information circulating on social media or from unverified sources.
Momodu also encouraged prospective applicants to ensure that they have the appropriate immigration or residency status required to enlist in the U.S. military. He stressed the importance of following the official recruitment process and obtaining accurate information before making any decisions.
The actor’s comments have attracted attention among Nigerians, particularly those who have expressed interest in relocating to the United States and exploring opportunities within the country’s armed forces.
His experience has also generated curiosity about the pathway available to non-U.S. citizens who may wish to serve in the U.S. military. While certain non-citizens can enlist, eligibility is subject to specific immigration and residency requirements, and joining the military is not a general immigration route available to everyone.
Momodu’s advice therefore serves as a reminder to prospective applicants to verify their eligibility directly through official U.S. Army recruitment channels and to be cautious of individuals who may promise guaranteed enlistment or immigration opportunities in exchange for money.
The actor’s revelation comes as social media continues to expose Nigerians to stories of people who have built careers and pursued opportunities abroad, prompting increased interest in the processes involved in accessing such opportunities.
For Nigerians considering the U.S. Army, the first step is to establish whether they meet the applicable eligibility requirements before proceeding with recruitment.
Momodu’s decision to respond publicly to the questions he has received is expected to provide further clarity for those seeking to understand his experience and the realities of pursuing military service in the United States.
