The NAF was responding to certain media reports hinting that the ongoing air strikes directed by its Air Task Force for Operation DIRAN MIKIYA executed just guiltless regular folks in the zones assaulted and not marauders. 

It said its consideration was drawn "to certain media reports intimating that the ongoing air strikes led by its Air Task Force for Operation DIRAN MIKIYA slaughtered just honest regular people in the territories assaulted and not crooks.

In such cases, the pilots would prefer to come back to Base with their weapons unexpended. 

Thus, it is incomprehensible that the NAF would assault areas where honest regular citizens dwell. 

In perspective on the previous, the NAF discovers it rather evil that anybody would spread such ponder deception while the Service is doing its best to adequately react to the difficulties confronting the great individuals of Zamfara and its environs. 

Instead of making such misleading and unconfirmed claims, NAF demands that anybody with proof such that guiltless regular folks were focused by the NAF air strikes should deliver such proof," he said. 

Daramola said the NAF, as an expert Service, would not have any desire to unite issues with any gathering of people, including customary rulers, however will rather stay focused on guaranteeing the wellbeing and security all things considered. 

In like manner, he said NAF would keep on working indefatigably, in collaboration with sister Services and other security offices, to free the North West of every single criminal component. 

He guaranteed the overall population that the NAF would not be hindered but rather would support its air activities to encourage an arrival to commonality that would empower Nigerians in the territory seek after their genuine yearnings. 

In such manner, the NAF thusly advocates open help, and not diverting and unverified charges, as its faculty keep on giving up towards dispensing with all dangers to the security and, undoubtedly, the advancement of our darling Country.
