Niger Crash: Don't Aid Terrorists' Propaganda, Dampen Troops' Morale, NAF Begs Nigerians

Air Commodore Gabkwet noted that the NAF has, in the last eight years, seen an increased level of air operations in efforts aimed at checkmating the nefarious activities of terrorists and criminal elements in the country.

He recalled that the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Hasan Abubakar, stated this much when he hosted Governor Umaru Bago of Niger State on Tuesday, August 15, 2023, at his office where he noted that the rates of aircraft accidents/incidences were directly proportional to the heightened level of air operations.

“For those aiding and abetting the propaganda tendencies of terrorists, deliberately or inadvertently, by spreading the videos of the alleged crash site with gory pictures of dead military personnel, the need to rethink the consequences of their actions on the morale of troops, families of deceased personnel as well as on Nigeria’s national security is imperative”.
