A Police investigator, Superintendent Olusola
Agoi said enquiries which were still ongoing, had shown that the
aircraft that hovered on a certain guest house in Synagogue Church of
All Nations on the 12th of September, 2014 that killed about
116 people including 81 South Africans was a military plane, a coroner’s
inquest was told today.
“We
have found out that the aircraft belongs to the Nigerian Air Force and
was said to be on a circuit training mission at the time of the
incident. This was confirmed by the NAF,” Agoi told the hearing.
Before
now, expert witnesses have ruled out a blast and said the plane which
was flying at 1,100 feet was on the flight path to the nearby Lagos
airport and meant no harm.
