Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A Nigerian Army personnel, Lance Corporal Nwobodo Chinonso has killed three soldiers and himself.<\/p>\n

Chinonso is reported to have opened fire and killed Lt. Sam Oladapo and others at the weekend.<\/p>\n

Oladapo was the Commander of the Forward Operating Base (FOB) Rabah in Sokoto State.<\/p>\n

He also shot the FOB Command Sergeant Major (CSM), Sgt. Iliyasu Inusa, and a private soldier, Attahiru Mohammed.<\/p>\n

After killing his colleagues, the shooter turned the gun to himself and committed suicide.<\/p>\n

A source told PRNigeria that the Commander 8 Division Garrison and Commander 26 Battalion are at the base.<\/p>\n

The remains of the victims have been removed to the Usmanu Danfodiyo Teaching Hospital; an investigation has commenced.<\/p>\n

A senior officer in Sokoto Division suggested the soldier may have been battling \u201coperational and psychological stress\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is something that is common in the military. But that\u2019s not a justification for any of our soldiers to go haywire,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
