Applicants often find it difficult to apply for the Nigerian Navy Recruitment Course 29, due to many factors; one can be that you are not eligible or you are unable to access their website.
For those who are unable to access the Nigerian Navy Recruitment Website, most times, this is because the Nigerian Navy server is down during the day, perhaps due to its bandwidth and capacity.
