A Nigerian Air Force (NAF) C-130 aircraft and its crew have arrived at the Air Force Base in Accra, Ghana, after departing Bobo-Dioulasso in Burkina Faso earlier on Friday.
Zagazola reliably gathered that the aircraft is scheduled to proceed to Portugal on Saturday as planned for a flight maintenance mission, official sources said.
On arrival in Accra, the NAF crew and aircraft were received by officials of the Ghana Air Force and representatives of the Nigerian Embassy in Ghana.
A defence source told Zagazola that the reception illustrated the cordial military-to-military relations and longstanding diplomatic ties between Nigeria and Ghana.
We in Nigeria, extend our appreciation to the Ghanaian Government and diplomatic officials for the warm reception and support extended to the Nigerian NAF crew.
