The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has described as false and misleading the news making the rounds alleging that a NAF aircraft accidentally killed innocent civilians in Kaduna, North West Nigeria.
Contained in a Statement by the Director of Public Relations and Information, Nigerian Air Force Headquarters, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, the NAF dismissed the allegation, saying that it has hitherto remained true to its course in securing the nation.
“Please be informed that the NAF has not carried out any air operations within Kaduna State and environs in the last 24 hours. Also, note that the NAF is not the only organization operating combat armed drones in the North western region of Nigeria.
“It is also important to ensure that due diligence is always exhausted by the media before going to press with unverified and unconfirmed reports,” Gabkwet remarked.
