Police Say Airforce Jet Accidentally Fires Missile At A Port Harcourt Building

The Rivers State police command said a loud blast heard in Port Harcourt earlier today was that of a missile accidentally fired from an airforce jet on routine maintenance at the Airforce mechanic hangar in Port Harcourt.

Commissioner of Police Mohammed Indabawa told Saharareporters that the missile hit an uncompleted building three kilometers from the scene of the accidental discharge. He said no death or injuries were reported.

Panicked residents had reported hearing a deafening explosion in Worji area of Port Harcourt around 7:30 AM

Tuberculosis Joshua don predict again?

phocked up country

why is a jet carrying live missiles within the shores of the country.

It's just crazy! I wonder what would have happened if people had died.

The whole story doesn't add-up. Do you know the distance btw woji(where the explosion supposedly occured) and the NAF base or was the missile shot from the air?
Any woji NLder to clear the story?

accidental discharge don dey happen for airforce too

Another crazy act!

Dem dey do action movie ni?

So someone now has to add missiles to things to look out for

i had to call my neighbours and my maid to confirm the blast, the sound was heard which means its near-by. I suspect arround woji-estate (ALCON side, alot of uncompleted building are there)

any injuries

This is a very serious military offence,negligence and should not be treated with levity.The missile could not have launched itself.The military authorities should set-up a BOI to examine the circumstances surrounding the incident,to avoid future recurrence.Those behind the accident don't deserve to be in my father's job.They should be shown the way to their respective villages.

And some ediots want Nigeria to venture into generating power from nuclear stations....

A good thing we don't have anything nuclear

dem wan do new action home video blcokbuster ..lol

Incredible

I wonder what misiles are doing on a fighter jet that is not on a mission,or are fighter jets suppose to be loaded even when not on a mission? or is the pilot an hausa man?

Wowzers!

Thank goodness no physical harm came to anyone.

"Stray missile." Wetin we no go hia?
