Nigerian Military Police Arrest Female Soldier Caught On Camera Dehumanising, Bathing Corps Member With Unknown Substance

After an apparent altercation, the Nigerian Army Corps of Military Police (NACMP) detained Lieutenant Chika Viola Anele, a female commissioned army officer who was seen on camera punishing a member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Ezeiruaku Ifeyinwa Fidelia in Cross River State.

Agba Jalingo, a Nigerian journalist and human rights campaigner, posted a video on Facebook showing the officer pouring an unknown white material on the kneeling corps member before hitting her with a bowl.

“#JusticeForIfenyinwa. This is what a commissioned female Army officer, Lt. Chika Viola Anele, did to a youth corps member, Ezeiruaku Ifeyinwa Fidelia, serving at the 13 Brigade headquarters in Calabar after having an argument,” Jalingo had posted.

“We understand that the leadership in 13 Brigade are working to kill the matter. Let us make the officer very popular for all the wrong reasons.

“Share the video until it gets to the Chief of Army Staff and that Chika girl is brought to book.”

Giving an update on Thursday afternoon, the activist said Lieutenant Anele has been arrested by the military police and was under interrogation.

“The Army Officer, Lt. Chika Viola Anele, who was caught on video dehumanising and humiliating a Youth Corper, Ezeiruaku Ifenyinwa Fidelia in Calabar earlier, has just been arrested by the MP, after our report and under interrogation. #JusticeForIfenyinwa,” he posted.
