•Orders massive air strikes on sect
•To take delivery of Cobra gunships soon
•Friends identify pilot
Vengeance: That is the warning from the
Defence Headquarters, Abuja, to Boko Haram
following claims by the sect to have beheaded
a pilot of the Nigeria Air Force.
Although the DHQ on Friday disputed the claim
that any pilot was killed by the terrorists,
friends of the military man who was shown by
Boko Haram in its latest video as the man they
murdered, took to the social media yesterday
to ‘confirm’ his death in the hands of the
terrorists.
The Nigerian Army Support Group as the
‘friends’ call themselves named him as Wing
Commander Chimda Hedima, 39.
They described him as “a true Nigerian hero.”
They said of the circumstances of his death:
“On 11/09/14, a company of NA soldiers
attempted to overrun a BH position in Borno.
Due to the low altitude, the plane suffered
significant damage from the terrorists’ gunfire.
Wing Commander Hedima and his partner
realised that they were going to crash.
“They, instead of hurriedly parachuting to
safety within Nigerian controlled territory,
chose to embark on a mission to destroy as
many terrorists and their weapons as possible.
They parachuted out at the last minute but not
before ensuring their plane slammed into a
column of terrorists; 63 Boko Haram members
were killed as a result of their bravery.
“Wing Commander Hedima was captured. On
12/09/14, he was killed.
“He chose Nigeria, he chose all of us. We
cannot forget him. Please share his story. His
name should be known by everyone.
“Rest in peace, Commander, we are grateful.
May you find eternal peace. Thank you for
your service.”
But sources at the DHQ said yesterday that
regardless of claims about its missing pilot, the
military will battle on and deal decisively with
Boko Haram.
One of the sources said: “In spite of whatever
the insurgents may claim, I can tell you that
the battle has shifted more to the air than
land. The military has ordered more air strikes
against all the positions or camps of Boko
Haram.
“We will bombard the insurgents into
submission. They cannot intimidate our jet
fighters. As a matter of fact, more pilots are
willing to join the aerial raid. It is going to be
a battle to the finish.
“More fighter jets have been deployed in the
relevant areas in strategic manner. The
purported shooting down of 10 aircraft is a
hoax.”
Responding to a question, the source added:
“We are not only after those who claimed to
have beheaded a pilot; we will deal with all the
leaders of the sect and their members.
“We have the capacity to take the battle to
them. We will engage these insurgents and
overcome them.”
Already, the military has placed an order for
AH-1 Cobra helicopters for attacks on Boko
Haram enclaves in Sambisa Forest and the hilly
terrains of Gwoza and Madagali in Borno and
Adamawa states.
Another source said: “Actually the AH-1 Cobra
helicopters are good for the terrain in the
North-East. Many countries, including the
United States, have used these gunships in the
past.
“The Cobra helicopters were deployed by the
US during the Vietnam War. The situation in
Sambisa Forest could be likened to what was
then obtainable in Vietnam.”
The Huey Cobra, according to Wikipedia
“provided support for ground forces during
the Vietnam War.”
The AH-1 (company designation: model 209) is
a two-blade, single engine attack helicopter
manufactured by Bell Helicopter. It was
developed using the engine, transmission and
rotor system of the Bell’s UH-1 Iroquois.
some people call it snake.
