*10 military uniforms recovered from him

Samuel Johnson was arrested on September 17, 2012, proudly decked out in full military uniform.

When his home was searched, three police Walkie-Talkie radios, 10 pairs of military uniforms, four pairs of military boots and six military belts.

The wannabe soldier had been parading himself as a serving member of the Nigerian Army, Ojo Cantonment.

Preliminary investigations by police detectives revealed that the suspect was not a serving soldier, as believed by his neighbours and some of his friends.

Singing like a bird after he realized he was in a deep jam, Johnson confessed that he bought the military uniform from a serving soldier, attached to the Nigerian Army Intelligence, Ojo barrack.

He further confessed that he had been pretending to be a serving soldier for over four years.
