“Army Declares Soldier Wanted Over Alleged Sale Of Military Uniforms To Terrorists” — Ordnance Corps Vows Full Disciplinary Action
The Headquarters Nigerian Army Ordnance Corps has declared one of its personnel, Private Mohammed Yusuf Amutu, wanted over his alleged involvement in the illegal sale and supply of military uniforms to terrorists and other criminal elements.
The Corps announced the development in a statement issued on Thursday by the Assistant Director of Army Public Relations, Headquarters Nigerian Army Ordnance Corps, Major Oluwatope Aluko.
According to the statement, preliminary investigations linked Amutu to the alleged illegal activities after he absconded from his unit.
The Army said Amutu, who was serving at the Nigerian Army Ordnance Kits Factory, absconded from his unit on June 3, 2026.
“Consequently, he has been declared wanted by the appropriate military authorities, while intensive efforts are underway to locate and apprehend him to face a full investigation and appropriate disciplinary action in accordance with extant military laws,” the statement said.
The Nigerian Army Ordnance Corps said it has zero tolerance for misconduct, indiscipline or any act capable of compromising the operational effectiveness, integrity and reputation of the Nigerian Army or threatening national security.
It warned that any personnel found to have aided terrorists, criminals or other non-state actors through the unauthorised sale, diversion or distribution of military uniforms, accoutrements or other controlled items would face the full weight of military and civil laws.
The Corps appealed to members of the public to provide credible information that could lead to the arrest of the wanted soldier.
It urged anyone with useful information on Amutu’s whereabouts to report to the nearest military formation or any security agency.
The Army also reassured Nigerians of its commitment to accountability, professionalism and the protection of military assets.
It said it would continue to strengthen internal control measures and ensure that every allegation of misconduct is thoroughly investigated, while anyone found culpable would be held fully accountable.
Amutu remains wanted by military authorities, while the allegations against him are subject to full investigation and disciplinary proceedings.
