Agusta AW 101, one of the presidential aircraft recently given to the military, has crashed at the Nigerian Air Force base in Makurdi, Benue State.
The plane, a medium-lift helicopter specially designed for military operations, reportedly crashed due to poor training of crew members who manned its operation, according to a report.
The rate of casualties is currently unknown and there is no official statement from the Nigerian army.
Extent of the damage, still very sketchy. The aircraft was repainted after hand over from the initial white and green to camouflage.
