Terrorists have claimed responsibility for the crash of Nigerian Air Force surveillance helicopter in Badna, Chukuba ward of Shiroro Local Government Area of Niger State.
The Nigerian Air Force on Monday, August 14, confirmed the crash adding that they’ve commenced a probe to determine the probable cause of the incident.
However, in a two-minute-and-seventeen-second video making rounds online, some terrorists claimed they brought down the helicopter using AK47 rifle.
The narrator in the video who spoke in Hausa, said they belonged to Dogo Gide group, one of the notorious bandits that had terrorised parts of Niger State, causing deaths of many farmers and security operatives.
