A sergeant soldier identified as Silas Ninyo killed his superior, and injured four residents in Chibok local government area of Borno state on Sunday, TheCable reports.

Ninyo, who was said to be drunk, also took his own life after wreaking the havoc.

TheCable while quoting source, said that a team of soldiers led by K. Mani, who was providing security for worshippers during Sunday service, received a distress call that Ninyo was beating civilians for unknown reasons.

“Captain Mani, accompanied by soldiers, moved to the scene to free the civilian but while trying to disarm the errant soldier, Captain Mani was shot dead by Staff Sergeant Ninyo, who later killed himself,” a source said.

The spokesman of the army, Sani Usman, described the deaths of the officer and the staff sergeant as a great loss to the army.

Usman said a committee of inquiry had been set up to investigate the matter.
