Plane Crash: Taraba Governor feared dead in Yola plane crash
Reports from Yola, the Adamawa State capital, indicate that an
airplane has crashed while approaching the Yola International Airport.
Details of the incident is sketchy at this time, but witnesses said
the plane looks small, like a non-commercial private jet, and crashed
just behind the NNPC depot in the town.
There are reports that Governor Danbaba Suntai of Taraba was one of
the passengers on the ill-fated plane. His spokesperson could not be
reached yet for confirmation.
But the Special Assistant to the President, Reno Omokri, has just tweeted confirming the governor’s death.
“May the soul of the late departed Governor, Danbaba Suntai, of
Taraba State rest in peace and may God grant the state peace this trying
time,” he said.
