Lawmakers on Thursday visited the company which is manufacturing fighter jets for the Nigerian Air Force, A-29 Super Tucano.

President Muhammadu Buhari-led government in 2018 approved $469.4 million for the purchase of the aircraft to boost the fight against insecurity.

The Air Force in a post on Twitter noted that the delegation from the National Assembly visited the company to assess the progress work on the aircraft.
