BREAKING: ‘Secondary explosion’ caused deaths in Sokoto airstrikes – DHQ

The Defence Headquarters, DHQ, has blamed what it described as ‘secondary explosions’ for the death of some villagers during airstrikes in Sokoto.

Media Talk Africa recalls that a few days back, the Sokoto State government said 10 villagers were killed and others injured after airstrikes in Silame Local Government Area of the state.

However, the Director of Defence Media Operations, Major General Edward Buba, said the deaths and injuries were due to secondary explosions and not a direct result of the airstrikes.
