Saddened by the terrible news about the death of Nigeria’s Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Ibrahim Attahiru, and other officers in yesterday’s plane crash outside Kaduna. I offer my deepest condolences to their families and to the Nigerian Armed Forces. @CDS_Nig

Deeply saddened by the air crash that claimed the lives of the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru, and other military officers. All of them are heroes who paid the ultimate price for peace and security in the land.
