A soldier identified as Kila Jima fighting Boko Haram insurgents in Borno state has reportedly committed suicide.
It was reported that the soldier, a corporal in the Army’s 152 Battalion, Banki, was said to have suddenly cocked his rifle and shot himself in the head last Saturday, April 10.
The deceased was said to have shown some sign of depression before he eventually took his life. His body has been deposited at the military mortuary in Maiduguri.
