Army dismisses soldier for armed robbery, hands him over to police

The Nigerian Army has dismissed a soldier, Lance Corporal Samuel Emmanuel, over his involvement in an armed robbery incident.

The dismissal followed a court-martial held at the 16 Brigade Garrison earlier in the week.


According to an official memo from the Nigerian Army, Lance Corporal Emmanuel, who was serving under the 16 Brigade Garrison, was found guilty after thorough investigation and military legal proceedings.

He has since been handed over to the Nigerian Police Force for further prosecution.

“Lance Corporal Samuel Emmanuel has been officially dismissed from the Nigerian Army following his involvement in a case of armed robbery,” the statement read.

“After a thorough investigation and military proceedings, he was found guilty and consequently discharged from the Regiment,” it added.

“The Nigerian Army maintains a zero-tolerance policy towards indiscipline and criminal behaviour.

“All personnel are expected to uphold the highest standards of conduct, professionalism, and integrity — without exception.
