This is contained in a statement issued to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) by

NAF Director of Public Relations and Information, Air Vice Marshal Edward Gabkwet,on Tuesday in Kano.

“I am aware that the deceased, Mr Yusuf Shuaibu, was a temporary staff of 465 NAF hospital Kano. I am also aware that 2 days ago, the deceased and an airman had an altercation that ensued bordering on insubordination and the refusal of the deceased to adhere to certain directives.

“I am also aware that after their altercation, the matter was amicably settled, and the deceased then proceeded home with no sign of any illness, only for information to filter in the next day that he had passed on.

“Indeed, the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Hassan Abubakar, has been briefed on the news of the unfortunate and untimely death of Mr Shuaibu, and he is saddened by the loss.

“He has, however, directed the Commanders of the Hospital and NAF Base Kano to extend his condolence and that of the entire NAF family to the family of the deceased,”Gabkwet said.
