The Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, said on Saturday the Federal Government would undertake a comprehensive investigation into the air strike that led to the death of 10 people in Sokoto State.
The victims were killed on Wednesday when a military jet targeting the Lakurawa terrorists mistakenly dropped bombs on residents of Gidan Bisa and Gidan Ruutuwa villages in the Silame local government area of the state.
The minister, according to a statement issued by the Chief Press Secretary to the Sokoto State Governor, Abubakar Bawa, gave the assurance when he paid a condolence visit to Governor Ahmed Aliyu in the Government House in Sokoto.
