Tragedy was averted recently following the crash of Nigeria Air Force Aircraft in Benue yesterday Friday, July 14, 2023.
A military source said two personnel of the Nigerian Air Force onboard ejected unhurt.
The source said; “An FT7-NI aircraft crashed today in Makurdi. The cause of the crash could not be immediately ascertained. It had two Airmen onboard. They ejected unhurt from the jet.”
The spokesperson for the service, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, confirmed the incident in a statement issued on Friday.
Meanwhile, popular Nigerian prophet, Primate Elijah Ayodele in a video interview earlier this year warned the NAF to be careful so their aircraft will not crash.
“They must be careful so that Nigeria Air force aircraft will not crash. They must be careful so that police aircraft will not crash too.”
Just as the man of God warned, probably the NAF wasn’t careful enough as Primate Ayodele advised, the aircraft crashed on Friday but miraculously, no casualty was recorded.
This isn’t the first time Primate Ayodele’s prophecy on Nigeria’s military will be coming to pass. Several warnings to the Military have been fulfilled over the years. The most prominent among them was the unfortunate crash that led to the death of a former chief of army staff, Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru in 2021.
Primate Ayodele, just like he warned against the latest crash, had shared on his social media platforms that the military should be extra careful and watchful against any form of aircraft crash but sadly, it happened and took the life of the most senior personnel in the military at that time.
