The Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Faruk Yahaya, has ordered the immediate release of a detained female soldier, Hannah Sofiat.
Sofiat had accepted a marriage proposal from a male corps member at the National Youth Service Corps Orientation Camp in Yikpata, Kwara.
However, a military source told our correspondent on Saturday that the Chief of Army staff had intervened and asked that she should be pardoned.
The source at Army Headquarters said that the COAS took the decision in the spirit of Christmas.
