The Nigerian Army has dismissed a soldier identified as Musa Adamu for preaching about Jesus Christ while in service uniform on social media. SaharaReporters in July reported how Adamu, a Lance Corporal with service number 13NA/70/6100 and attached to the Amphibious Training School Personnel (ATSCalabar) unit in Calabar, Cross River State was detained by the army authorities.
The Nigerian Army has denied detaining one of its personnel, Lance Corporal Musa Adamu, on religious grounds. SaharaReporters had exclusively reported how Adamu was detained by the army authorities for preaching about Jesus Christ while in service uniform on social media. According to a military source, the Benue state-born soldier has been in detention for over 45 days while his salary was stopped over six months ago. Adamu, who was born a Muslim, was said to have recently converted to Christianity.
