Bandits Claim Responsibility For Surveillance Helicopter That Crashed In Niger State
Bandits have claimed responsibility for the crashed surveillance helicopter in Badna, Chukuba ward of Shiroro Local Government Area of Niger State.
Recall that a surveillance helicopter crashed in Badna, Mina, Niger State, on Monday
The Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Gwabin Musa, during a meeting with Niger State governor in his office, Abuja, stated that weather conditions, among others, may have contributed to the helicopter crash.
He added that investigation had commenced to determine the probable cause of the incident.
But terrorists, in a two-minute-and-seventeen-seconds video, claimed they brought down the jet using an AK-47 rifle.
The narrator in the video, who spoke in Hausa, said they belonged to Dogo Gide group, one of the notorious bandits that have been terrorising parts of Niger State, causing deaths of many farmers and security operatives.
