This statement was made by the Director Public Relations and Information Nigerian Air Force, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet.
According to the director, though efforts are on to recover the missing aircraft, the crash site is yet to be located.

According to the NAF spokesman, “efforts are continuing intensively and until we find that crashed aircraft we will not rest in that.
“Efforts are ongoing to recover the crashed air craft, we have not been able to locate it yet. I know all hands are on deck to see that we locate the crash site so that we can go on from there.
“I can assure that as soon as there is new information, I will be the first to make a press release on that immediately.
“The lives of our two pilots are also involved and I am sure that their families are also very anxious to hear from us and of cause we also need to find out the whereabouts of the pilots. It is actually important to us.
“We will definitely inform the families and the entire nation of what happened, we are not hiding anything”.
