In mourning the late Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru, the United States says Nigeria is going through difficult time.
The US Mission in Nigeria issued a statement on Friday night.
America joined Nigerians in mourning the loss of life from the plane crash in Kaduna.
The world power called the demise of Attahiru and others as “a tremendous loss to Nigeria, and his loved ones”.
“During this difficult time across Nigeria when security and peace is so needed, we offer our deepest sympathy to the family of General Attahiru and to the families of all those who perished,” it read.
Nigerians are in shock over the news with different claims and theories. While some say the aircraft might have developed a fault, others alleged assassination.
One of Attahiru’s last public engagements was his appearance at the House of Representatives in April.
