Soldier dismissed for sleeping with colleague’s wife
A soldier named Abdullahi Ismail has been dismissed from the Nigerian Army after he was found guilty of having sex with his colleague’s wife.
The Lance Corporal was dismissed during the week at 231 Battalion in Biu, Borno State.
His dismissal is expected to serve as a deterrent to other soldiers involved in the act said to be common in the barracks.
The dismissed soldier had a notorious history of sexual indiscipline before he was reported to the army authorities, a source told SaharaReporters.
His offence - indecent professional misconduct and having sex with a fellow soldier’s wife - contravenes Sections 79 and 93 of the Armed Forces Act CAP A20, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004.
The law prescribes jail term and dismissal from service with dishonour.
