What will the academy do if the have a certain number of candidates who sat for the exams & are successful in all sort of test & the are only willing to take a few among them what will the do?
Secondly, we have had series of countless errors being said by other forces academy such as NDA, NMA & the rest when it comes to admission into the academy where we see names of non indigent being offered admission in the allocated space of the state. What is the NAP going to do about this in order to prevent it from happening in their own case?
I would be grateful if ma questions are being answered & given special consideration.
Thank you.

@No.35 I used to have similar thought to yours, but I come to realize that a person of any tribe can also claim indigenship of state you claim to be yours. Forinstance, a hausa man who was born and brought up in Lagos can claim Lagos state as his state of origin, so also is a Yoruba man from Lagos and vise-versa. This explains why you see all sort of names featuring in your state.
