2 Fighter Jets deployed by the Nigerian Airforce to Naimey have commenced support operations for US led drone surveillance operations in Niger Republic.
The two fighter jets, Alpha Jets NAF 455 and NAF 452 Dassault-Brguft Donnier 78 are said to be the game-changer that helped ECOMOG forces led by Nigeria contain Charles Taylor and his forces during the Liberian conflict.
Military sources said the jets also played a similar role in the Sierra Leonean civil war and ensured that peace was enforced at the West African sister country.
The Nigerian government is said to be very concerned as to how leader of the Boko Haram Islamic sect, Imam Abubakar Shekau has returned to Nigeria via Niger Republic borders.
Imam Abubakar Shekau recently debunked rumors of a ceasefire agreement and threatened more violence.
