The Nigerian Army has dismissed Lance Corporal Abdullahi Ismail from service after he was found guilty of engaging in an illicit relationship with a fellow soldier’s wife.
According to Sahara Reporters, sources reveal that the dismissal took place at the 231 Battalion in Biu, Borno State, earlier this week.
“The soldier was fired from the Nigerian Army for sleeping with his colleague’s housewife. We’re happy as this will serve as an example to others involved in this act now common in our barracks,” one of the sources said.
Another source added, “Our colleague, Abdullahi has been dismissed at 231 BN Biu. He slept with his regular’s wife. So sad.”
The soldier, who was recently dismissed, had a history of sexual misconduct prior to his reporting. His actions, which included engaging in an illicit relationship with a fellow soldier’s wife, constituted a serious breach of military conduct and violated specific sections of the Armed Forces Act.
This offense carries a penalty of imprisonment and dismissal from service with dishonor, as outlined in the law.
