An eyewitness has stated that the pilot of the Nigerian Air Force that crashed on Sunday afternoon was a hero.
Speaking with Channels Tv, she said that they saw how the pilot identified as Haruna Chiroma Gadzama, struggled to make sure the aircraft doesn’t crash in a residential area.
“I just heard a sound, fire and smoke started together. I couldn’t go there initially and when I finally did, I saw dead bodies there. I didn’t count them. I was just crying because thag pilot is a merciful pilot. He was struggling not to crash into residential areas. I think he was trying to go back to the airport. He flew up and down but when he got to that bush, he crashed. Nobody survived it.”
Recall that the Nigerian Air Force Beechcraft KingAir B350i aircraft that was returning to Abuja crashed this afternoon in Abuja. Aboard the aircraft was six persons who are all dead.
