Nollywood actor Joseph Momodu has cautioned Nigerians interested in joining the United States Army to be wary of individuals who may attempt to exploit their ambitions through fraudulent recruitment schemes.
The actor’s warning followed a growing number of inquiries from Nigerians who have reportedly reached out to him seeking information about how they can enlist in the US Army after learning about his own experience.
Joseph Momodu urged prospective applicants to understand the eligibility conditions before paying money to anyone or providing personal information to people claiming to have connections within the US military recruitment system.
According to the actor, having the desire to join the US Army is not enough, as applicants must meet specific immigration and eligibility requirements before they can begin the recruitment process.
In a message shared on his social media platform, Joseph Momodu specifically warned Nigerians against falling victim to scams while seeking information about enlistment.
He explained that prospective recruits must have the appropriate legal status in the United States before they can proceed with the required recruitment stages.
He also mentioned the green card requirement and the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) examination as part of the process.
Momodu wrote, “Do not get scammed. The only way you can join the US Army is by being a citizen of the U.S, you must have a green card then you can be qualify to apply for the ASVAB exam.”
His message was aimed at correcting possible misconceptions surrounding the process and discouraging people from believing individuals who claim they can secure military enlistment for them through unofficial arrangements.
The actor also advised interested Nigerians to seek information from legitimate and recognised sources rather than depending on intermediaries who may demand money in exchange for assistance.
The warning comes as opportunities to work, study or build careers abroad continue to attract interest among Nigerians, with some people exploring military service as a possible route to employment and a new life in the United States.
Joseph Momodu’s advice highlights the importance of verifying recruitment information before taking any financial or personal steps.
Individuals who are unfamiliar with the US Army enlistment process could potentially become targets for scammers who use false promises, fake documents or claims of special connections to collect money from unsuspecting applicants.
He therefore encouraged those genuinely interested in military service to first establish whether they meet the official eligibility requirements and to obtain accurate information through authorised channels.
