Here are the things that make you eligible:

The Nigerian Armed Forces (NAF recruitment 2019) is for Nigerians only; foreigners are not allowed.

If you are applying for regular qualification, you should be from 18 to 22 years old (these are the age limits set for the time the candidate gets into the training school).

Those citizens who wish to apply with NCE, Nursing, ICT or other higher qualification can apply from 24-26 years old only.

Are you married? Do not apply. Only single men and women who have no children are eligible to join the Navy.

In case you have a criminal conviction, you cannot be a part of the organisation, so do not fill out the form since only citizens who do not have criminal records are allowed.

Your health should be excellent if you are planning to submit your recruitment form (in case you have eye problems or heart disease, ear issues, mental disorders, physical disabilities, etc. avoid this exercise).

Women should be at least 1.67 meters high to apply.

All male applicants have to be at least 1.70 meters tall to be eligible.

It is necessary to be educated and to have your diploma (General Certificate or Secondary School Diploma) and credits for NECO/NABTEB/OND/NIN or other examinations.

However, if you have BA/BSC, HND or other higher education diploma, you cannot send your application form and take part in the recruitment exercise.

Make sure to select the profession according to your qualification. You can choose from the list of 32 available categories, including engineer, electrical artificer, marine mechanics, computer, journalist, seaman, fireman, caterer, medical assistant, nurse, and many others.
