EXCLUSIVE: Female Soldier Dismissed For Stealing 'N35Million Gold Jewellery' From Nigerian Army General’s Wife

A Nigerian female soldier has been dismissed after confessing to stealing gold jewellery said to be worth N35 million from an army general’s wife she was attached to in Kaduna.

Sources in the army identified the female soldier as Lance Corporal Jonah Comfort with service number 15NA/74/4422F.

Comfort reportedly committed the offence earlier in May.

She was said to have entered the senior officer’s room and stolen the jewellery.

The female soldier subsequently sold the jewellery to a jeweller in Kaduna for N5 million.

SaharaReporters learnt that the army authorities did not want the public to know about the incident as it might lead to a debate as to how the senior officer’s wife acquired jewellery worth millions of Naira despite being a housewife.

The jeweller has also been arrested by the military police, SaharaReporters was told.

“The army authorities have been careful over the issue because the general’s wife is a full housewife, so how come she has jewellery worth millions of Naira? The jewellery stolen by the soldier which was valued at N35 million was just part of her collections,” one of the sources said.

“The female soldier had long been monitoring the woman before stealing the jewellery worth N35 million which she later sold to one jeweller for N5 million but unfortunately she was caught.

“Sadly, most of these female soldiers have been turned into slaves by our senior officers’ wives. Now she has been dismissed and put in a cell.”

This comes a few days after the army authorities dismissed three soldiers who were arrested by the police for armed robbery and kidnapping.

The suspects were identified as LL Abdul Musa, L Innocent Okwoli and L West Isaac.

According to military sources, the dismissed soldiers were arrested by policemen during an operation in April.

They were subsequently handed over to the army authorities for further investigation.

Consequently, the soldiers were charged, tried, found guilty and dismissed from service in line with the provisions of the Armed Forces Act Caps A20, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004.

They were subsequently returned to the police for prosecution.

When majority of the Nigerian army General is a billionaire without a known source, what do you expect?

If you check closely, you would see so many wives of these Generals have got the 35m in gold or land or house or car

Safe to say Nigeria Army generals are the most corrupt in the whole world

35 million naira gold jewelry of general's wife hmmm....Seem like those general's wife have more money than their husband...

As much as I feel for the dismissed soldier, tiff na tiff. Let’s first chastise her for stealing before we ask where her Madam see the money to buy gold. Stealing is bad. Unfortunately, our socially inept minds would blame one and make excuses for the other.

What a hell is a generals wife doing with goods worth 35million
Wetin she dey work?
Whats her position is her office?
How much does she earns?

That money can pay 10 retired military personnel gratuity.
Na him person get as gold for house,
B4,i was hopin that this great nation will be good
But as for the legacy wey APC leave,
It will be imposible for this country to go forward

Proceeds of diversion of funds meant for security . The General's wife don draw her husband leg come out, the General, his wife and family need to be investigated . Why should a General's wife have an army personnel attached to her Why do the army authorities always make corrupt decisions

How did the general's wife acquire such a large amount of jewelries that a N35 million worth can be stolen from the pool? Which work is she doing? Ole no gbo gbo yin, but the lesser thief still get punished all of the time.

[b]In the ongoing travesty of justice that defines our beloved nation, the case of Yahya Bello epitomizes the rot within the Nigerian judicial system. It is nothing short of a national disgrace that while she is swiftly tried, judged, and sentenced within a mere 24 hours, those in the corridors of power continue to roam free, untouchable and unable. This stark contrast lays bare the selective justice that pervades our society.

In Nigeria, the axe of graft and corruption falls disproportionately on the low cadre and the economically disadvantaged. The poor and the powerless are made scapegoats, paraded before the courts and the media to give a false sense of justice being served. Meanwhile, the bourgeoisie and the politically exposed individuals, who plunder our nation's wealth in billions, escape without so much as a slap on the wrist. They are never arrested, never questioned, and never held able for their egregious crimes against the state.

These individuals blatantly defy the government, refusing to appear for interrogations or questioning, their arrogance and impunity shielded by their wealth and connections. This gross miscarriage of justice not only undermines the rule of law but also erodes the trust of the average Nigerian in the system meant to protect and serve all citizens equally.

It is an indictment of our justice system that those entrusted with the welfare of the nation are the very ones who bleed it dry, facing no repercussions while the common man bears the brunt of their greed. This selective justice is not just a flaw in our system; it is a cancer that threatens the very fabric of our society.

The Nigerian government must be harshly reprimanded for allowing such blatant inequality to persist. We demand a justice system where the law is truly blind, where the powerful are held to the same standards as the powerless, and where corruption is eradicated not selectively, but universally. Only then can we hope to build a nation where justice prevails, and every citizen, regardless of their socioeconomic status, is treated with fairness and dignity.[/b]

Animal republic

Is that why you people beat and injured her like this. Likely the General is not clean too.

.

So quick to show her face ..but what of the general's wife..where did she get 35m to buy gold chain ...

N35m worth of jewelries. The general's wife must be a very wealthy business woman or top corporate person or from a wealthy family. If none of the above, then I rest my case.

Abeg how much be the general monthly wages to be able to afford such an expensive jewelry for his spouse?


Don't quote me if you can't answer my question please...

You're welcome.
