According to multiple sources, the Lance Corporal was dismissed during the week at 231 Battalion in Biu, Borno State.
“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.

The source added that the dismissed soldier had a notorious history of s3xual indiscipline before he was reported to the army authorities.
His offence – indecent professional misconduct and having s3x 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.
This comes a few days after the Nigerian Army authorities dismissed two soldiers for stealing armoured cables from the Dangote Refinery, Lagos.
