The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has been accused of spearheading an airstrike in a village in Kaduna, but they have come out to deny it.
NAF dismissed claims that its aircraft accidentally bombed some villagers in Kaduna State.
The spokesperson for NAF, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, dismissed the report in a statement on Monday.
According to Gabkwet, the NAF had not carried out any air operations within Kaduna State and environs in the last 24 hours.
