A group, Arewa Youth Federation has described the publication of a US based media organisation, Wall Street Journal that the Nigeria Air Force paid N20m

as ransom to bandits in exchange for an anti-aircraft gun allegedly seized from the Nigerian Army as spurious and veiled attempt to blackmail the armed forces and fuel insecurity in the country.

In a statement reacting to the report that NAF paid N20m to bandits to avoid shooting down the President and signed by the group’s President, Muhammad Matazu, it regretted that the same media outfit had in 2019 published a false claim that the Nigeria Army buried over 1000 officers killed by Boko Haram in secrete graves in Borno state.
