Nollywood actor, Joseph Momodu has joined the US Army
He disclosed on Instagram that he has officially earned the rank of Specialist (SPC) in the United States Army upon completing Basic Combat Training.
The actor also dedicated the achievement to his late father, explaining that enlisting in the U.S. Army was his way of continuing his father’s legacy in law enforcement.
He wrote:
“From inception, I have always believed in achievements earned through merit, which is why I constantly push myself beyond limits.
“This particular one was forged through tears, fear of failure, resilience, endless days, short nights, fatigue, rain, and the scorching sun.”
We trained tirelessly, were broken down and rebuilt. I went to sleep a civilian and woke up a soldier.
“Ten weeks of being incommunicado. Ten weeks of learning to find comfort in discomfort.”
“On April 12, 2026, I honored my late father in a historic way. 20 years after his passing, I picked up the baton where he left off in the Nigerian Police Force and carried it forward by getting enlisted into the United States Army.”
