This is a press statement from the Nigerian Air Force.
The attention of the Nigerian Air Force has been drawn to media report
on the crash of one of the Agusta Westland 101 helicopters handed over
recently by the Presidency. Contrary to the crash report, it is
pertinent to state that the mishap occurred while the helicopter was
taxing after a successful mission.
The incident happened last week on the tarmac at 33
Logistics Group, Makurdi.
The NAF has since set-up a board of officers to investigate the
immediate and remote causes of the incident. The 7-man board is headed
by Air Vice Marshal Emmanuel Anebi. Details of the investigation would
be communicated to the public as soon as the Board concludes its
assignment.
