The Nigerian Air Force, NAF has deployed additional sixty special forces to complement the effort of the ongoing Hadarin Daji operation to wipe out bandits and kidnappers wrecking havoc on innocent citizens of Katsina state.

The special forces, which comprise three well trained officers and 57 men, have been deployed along with additional platforms to be injected into the fight.

The Air Officer Commanding Special Operations Command, AVM Charles Ohwo made the disclosure shortly after addressing the newly deployed troops at the Umaru Musa Yar’adua Airport, Katsina.

Ohwo said the deployment was necessary following the recent attacks in Batsari and Jibia LGAs which have claimed many lives in the state.

He added that air assets were already deployed in the state some days ago by the Chief of Air staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar whom have operated for the past 24 hours with successful outcomes with many of the bandits taken out.
