The Nigerian Naval has denied online reports (not by SHIPS & PORTS) of a viral video of a purported attack by some security militants on a naval location in the Niger Delta.
Director of Information, Commodore Suleiman Dahun in a text message said the video clip is a simulation exercise conducted by Nigerian Navy Special Boat Service operatives during an occupation in a naval base.
He said only a disreputable news media would gobble such as fit for publication.
The navy spokesman said since March 2021, the Nigerian military has been carrying out simulation in partnership with the United States in the fight against terrorism and piracy.
