The Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of NDLEA, Brig. Gen. Mohamed Buba Marwa (rtd.), in a letter of condolence to the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sunday Kelvin Aneke, on Wednesday, expressed the Agency’s condolences to the Air Force leadership, officers, and the families of the fallen heroes.
Marwa described the crash as devastating, noting that the news was received with profound grief.
He praised NAF for consistently demonstrating exceptional patriotism, gallantry, and unwavering commitment to the defence and security of the nation.
