A Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Dornier-228 aircraft crashed into a house at Ribadu Cantonment in Kaduna shortly after take-off. The owner of the house on which the chopper crashed, Lt. Col. Grema, told the press that he narrowly escaped death in the air crash.
“I came out of my house few minutes before the aircraft fell on my bore hole," he said, adding that "I had not quite shut the door to my house when I heard the noise arising from the crash.”
"The plane was on a daily routine flight to Abuja when it crashed within the premises of the barracks, killing the four crew members and three civilian passengers," told the press military spokesman Colonel Abdul Usman.
A selfie of a co-pilot who tragically died on Saturday, August 29, as a result of the Nigerian Air Force helicopter crash in Kaduna, has been circulating in the internet.
