Over 196 soldiers stationed in the North-East and other active regions have reportedly requested voluntary retirement from the Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Taoreed Lagbaja.
SaharaReporters reports that most of the soldiers resigning had indicated interest to join the military forces of other countries, including the British Army, Ukrainian Army, and other Commonwealth nations.
The soldiers, drawn from various formations of the army across the country according to the list obtained on Saturday, are all junior cadres.
The Chief of Army Staff has since approved their formal disengagement.
The list of the exiting soldiers did not distinguish between those embarking on voluntary retirement and those leaving the army on medical grounds.
However, none of them had neither attained retirement age nor the mandatory years of service.
The approval of their voluntary disengagement dated August 23 was signed by Brigadier OH Musa.
SaharaReporters recently reported moves by many soldiers to resign over poor welfare, inadequate equipment, and lack of motivation within the Nigerian Army.
Multiple sources who spoke to the newspaper had expressed frustration with the Nigerian government’s failure to provide them with decent living conditions, modern weapons, and adequate compensation to combat a series of non-state actors ravaging the country.

A Nigerian couple is seeking answers after their baby was severely inj¥red at a daycare center in Okota, Lagos.
The dad, who shared graphic images of the baby’s face covered in br¥ises, told activist Harrison Gwamnishu that the child was att@cked on his first day at daycare.
“The owner of the school said another child did this to him, but doctors said it was an animal.
The woman doesn’t want to tell us the truth about what happened to our baby.
We have gone to the police, but she is using her money to cover it up because she is a wealthy woman. Please help us,” he said.

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has stated that Nigerians may end up buying petrol at N5000 per litre.
NLC’s spokesperson, Benson Upah disclosed this in an interview with Daily Trust on Saturday, September 7.
Accto him, “We are planning to have a meeting with the appropriate organs of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC). Those organs will take the decisions. We will take decisions that we believe would be in the best interest of our members and possibly, this country.
“Nonetheless, the mood, I can tell you, is that of anger and I want to say that it is not only within the Nigerian Labour Congress that you have anger. Virtually every Nigerian is angry, except that first one per cent that is maintained by the state. You know, that one per cent has everything; we give them everything, those are the only ones who are not complaining. Every other Nigerian is complaining. So, our mood is reflective of the general mood of the country.
“After the announcement, the next day, a Senior Special Assistant to the President on Print Media, Mr Abdulaziz Abdulaziz, said we were lying and there was no agreement. We want to reiterate that we feel betrayed by the present increase in the pump price of petroleum products.
The president acted in breach of his promise to labour leaders and he knows the truth. But let us even look at this matter; what has happened goes beyond the parameters of minimum wage and negotiation. It negatively affects the generality of Nigerians. Since the first wave of price increase, occasioned by the removal of fuel subsidy on May 29, 2023, Nigerians have been trying to reorder their lives to accept the fate they never bargained for.
