The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Faruk Yahaya, has said the Army will not stop any soldier that observes the right procedures from leaving the service.

Yahaya disclosed this at the 23rd Combat Service Support Corps Training Week 2022, themed “Building the capacity of the Nigerian Army Combat Service Support Corps in combating contemporary security challenges in joint environment,” held in Lagos.

He said, “Saying a soldier resigned due to pressure, does that make sense? A Nigerian soldier, a professional soldier resigns because of pressure? It doesn’t make sense. Our job is designed to have pressure and we are trained all across to have pressure, but the Army and others also have their own terms and conditions of service, they are what are called harmonised terms and conditions of service.

“When you join the Army, it’s voluntary and now there are also conditions at which when you want to do other things also, you can do. For you to leave the Army and do other things, there is a period, it is contained in our books. You apply, stating the reasons why you should leave, and these reasons are considered and granted. There is no constriction whatsoever.

“Such soldiers, who leave, contribute in other fields and with the training and discipline he has got in the Army, anywhere he goes after retirement, he will do well. I challenge you all to check where all our retired soldiers go. They will all be doing well because they have trained with the values and virtues of dedication and commitment and discipline.”
