The deceased is an Aircraft man.Nigerian Airforce does not currently have any officer in the rank of Air chief Marshall ,the highest rank is currently Air Marshall currently being occupied by sadique Abubakr,so the postal kindly edit the post for the simple fact that it's already on the front page . God bless the Nigerian Airforce (willing ,able and ready). 168 Likes 4 Shares |

sacajawea: Please read to understand. I said presently, the NAF does not have one. That does not mean it has never had Air Chief Marshals. We had Air Chief Marshals Alex Badeh, Oluseyi Petinrin and Paul Dike, all former CDS. 14 Likes |

Simple safety tips would have saved this tragedy. Apart from handling guns and flying the craft, they should also be taught to take safety very serious. Lord bless his soul. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

This almost happened to me years back while in the SAS. We had just finished an aerial reconnaissance mission over the plains of enemy territory... I was about removing my helmet and pack my things for the day. I thought of taking a selfie for my chubby kid at home, being a doting father. Suddenly as i stood smiling ... i saw my colleagues gasp and their eyes widen in raw, unadulterated FEAR. 5 Likes |

PatrickOkunima:!!! Air Chief Marshall is the rank of the Chief of Defense Staff. Imagine saying the chief of defense staff is deployed to the battle field when is not the kind of battles that iserealites fought in the old testament. The story get as e be. "The deceased, who was the co-pilot, had gone to the pick his bags and on his way back, he passed through the side of the rotor which was functioning. “Immediately his head was chopped off,” the source said." Abeg na ontop helicopter the guy bag dey abi the rotor dey inside the helicopter? 12 Likes |
