Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Publisher of SaharaReporter, Omoyele Sowore has vowed to mobilize justice for a female soldier allegedly being detained by the Nigerian Army after she received a marriage proposal from a Youth Corper at the orientation camp in Yikpata, Kwara State.<\/p>\n

DAILY POST reports that a video had emerged on social media days ago where a corps member was sighted proposing to a yet-to-be-identified female soldier who was fully kitted in her official khaki camouflage.<\/p>\n

The video accessed by our correspondent, showed the soldier kissing the corps member at her supposed duty post.<\/p>\n

However, a report later emerged that the Nigerian army had allegedly detained the soldier for going against its established laws of publicly displaying affection for a romantic partner while on duty.<\/p>\n

Reacting, Sowore, a human rights activist tackled the Nigerian army, saying the move was totally unacceptable.<\/p>\n

In a post on his verified Facebook page, Sowore who vehemently condemned the action of the army, said the female soldier must get justice stressing that such treatment must stop.<\/p>\n

The post reads, \u201cJust came to my attention that the @Nigerian army detained the female soldier in this video for getting a proposal from a youth corps member.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat the Army did is totally unacceptable and I would very much love to mobilise for her to get justice. Our society is getting more and more oppressive and discriminatory.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis has to stop! Please if you have her contact or know how she could be reached, kindly DM me! #Revolutionnow\u201d.<\/p>\n
