If you mean; can you use the NABTEB result to apply for Nigerian force forms?, the answer is YES.

NABTEB is widely used and acceptable for any government job or recruitment in Nigeria.
Just like its equivalence; WAEC, NECO, and GCE, holders of this result can apply for any force, agency, or parastatals positions.

Nigerian Police Includes NABTEB Result in Its Job Requirements

NABTEB Result is Not Limited to Recruits

Don't confuse the acceptance of NABTEB for force form to be only applicable to recruit applications. No.

Other positions such as inspectors, superintendents, direct short services, etc require NABTEB as well.

Nigerian Navy in her Direct Short Service application stated that

All applicants must present O’level West African Examination Certificate (WAEC), in addition to any other results such as NECO. Credit in Mathematics and English is compulsory.

In addition to any other results should be interpreted as "WAEC is compulsory with any possible other SSCE result such as NECO and NABTEB".

Some Organisations May Not Accept NABTEB

However, some private companies such as banks may not accept it from their prospective employees. Where they won't, it should be made known in their job adverts. If otherwise, that means they accept it just like any other SSCE.

Contrary to that, NABTEB Advanced Level is highly demanded by companies that require technical knowledge for jobs e.g breweries, manufacturing companies, etc. NABTEB A'level is not like any SSCE results. Instead, it's a diploma course/result equivalent to National Diploma, NCE, IJMB, or JUPEB.
