We Are Not Aware Of Any Plane Crash — NAF

Three hours after the news broke online, the Nigerian Air Force was unable to confirm allegations of a military aviation crash.

“No crash in Kaduna. No aircraft left Yola for Kaduna,” Air Force spokesman Edward Gabkwet said in a message to Peoples Gazette. “I am making contact and awaiting information from other locations.”

According to online reports, a military plane took off from Yola and crashed in Kaduna on Sunday afternoon.

Two Nigerian military jets crashed in Abuja and Niger while on a reconnaissance mission in both states, according to unsubstantiated reports.
