The Nigerian Air Force has been accused of attacking an officer of the Nigerian army with a bomb at checkpoints in Mubi.
According to the army, some Air Force officers recently attacked checkpoints manned by some soldiers in Mubi.
One of the soldiers who witnessed the incident told newsmen that: “ We are 17 in number, manning checkpoints on the Mubi side, when an Air Force plane drop bombs on us. We all fled the area. Up until now, I cannot say where my colleagues are, because we ran in different directions.
“I managed to come to Yola through Cameroon, after trekking for some kilometres. I was assisted by some good Samaritan.”
Residents of Hong where the bomb exploded told Punch that an Air Force helicopter also dropped bombs on some residential houses in Shuwa village near the hometown of Nigerian Ambassador to Tunisia, Ambassador James Barka.
