Upon completion of the exercise, successful applicants shall be issued with calling letters to commence basic military training at the Kenya Military Academy (KMA) in Nakuru for cadets and the Recruits Training School (RTS) in Eldoret for recruits.
“To all aspiring candidates, be mindful that this is not a job but a calling. Every day, the men and women in uniform renew their commitment to serve humanity; this is the conscious choice you’re just about to make.
However, we assure you that military service is a worthwhile undertaking. I welcome all willing potential candidates to present themselves for recruitment,” said the Vice Chief of Defence Forces Jonah Mwangi.
General Mwangi implored the members of the public to desist from fraud and other corruption malpractices since it violates the integrity pillar of KDF core values, adding that intelligence and anti-corruption teams have already been activated.
“We request Kenyans in their patriotic mandate to volunteer information on any suspicious activity by reporting to the recruiting teams in the ground or call hotline number +254 726 419 709 or +254 726 419 706,” Lt Gen Mwangi said.
