A Boeing 737 passenger jet belonging to Aerocontractors Airlines crash-landed at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

The Director, Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, the Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB), JAMES ODAUDU, confirmed this in a statement issued in Abuja.

Although no injury or fatality was recorded, the NSIB, an agency of the Federal Government, confirmed that the aircraft got involved in a “serious accident” around 10.47 am upon arriving at the airport from Lagos.

The agency stated that the aircraft had its nose wheel stuck in the grass verge with its fuselage on the runway while the aircraft was exiting the runway via A4.

Meanwhile, the agency called for information in the form of pictures, video, or recording evidence to assist in conducting a comprehensive investigation into the accident at the Abuja airport.

It added that it would appreciate the general public and press respect the privacy of the people on board and not assume the cause of the incident until a formal report is released.
