The Nigerian Army has dismissed Lance Corporal Abdullahi Ismail after he was found guilty of having sex with his colleague’s wife, according to SaharaReporters.
“The soldier was fired from the Nigerian Army for sleeping with his colleague’s housewife,” a source said. “We’re happy as this will serve as an example to others involved in this act now common in our barracks.”
Another source confirmed the dismissal, stating, “Our colleague, Abdullahi has been dismissed at 231 BN Biu. He slept with his regular’s wife. So sad.”
The sources allege Abdullahi had a history of sexual misconduct before his dismissal. His actions violate Sections 79 and 93 of the Armed Forces Act, which address indecent behavior and adultery, and can result in both imprisonment and dishonorable discharge.
This dismissal follows the recent discharge of two soldiers caught stealing armored cables from the Dangote Refinery in Lagos.
