Just In: Mrs Fati Attahiru, COAS’s wife not involved in aircrash.

We had earlier reported that the wife of the Chief of Army Staff, Mrs Fati Attahiru was involved in the aircraft crash that claimed her husband’s life (Lt General Ibrahim Attahiru) as had earlier widely reported.

Leadership Online retracted its earlier news that reported Mrs Attahiru was involved in the air crash,

CORRIGENDUM:

“We erroneously reported that the wife of the Chief of Army Staff, Mrs Fati Attahiru, was involved in the air crash that claimed her husband and other military officers in Kaduna today.”

“We were misled by sources that we trusted. We apologise to the Attahiru family and share in their moment of grief.”

We retract and regret the publication.
