Panic in Lagos over rumoured plane crash

A scrap plane formerly owned by the late Apostle Gabriel Oduyemi of Bethel Ministries, Ajah, Lagos, caused panic in the city on Thursday as rumour spread that another aircraft had crashed in Lagos. Well, new findings reveal that the plane belongs to star actress, Omotola Ekeinde's husband.

The plane, with registration number N972TF, which was recently released to Captain Matthew Ekeinde was being towed from Muritala Muhammed Airport, Ikeja to Badagry but during the process, the tyres burst.

Since it occurred in the middle of the night, noting much could be done, so the incident forced Capt. Ekeinde to dump the plane at a filling station. Causing everyone to think there was another plane crash when they saw the plane the next morning!

(As you Nigerians dont dull things lol) people began to pose and take shots near the plane with their smart phones and camera, and queued behind the gate of Dapsey Oil filling station at Igando where the plane was parked.

A senior employee of the filling station said "The plane was brought here around 2am after one of its tyres burst. It was being towed by a red vehicle, but after it got to Igando, they discovered it would be difficult to get it to its destination with burst tyre, so they brought it here."

Capt. Ekeinde confirmed to Punch that the scrap plane belonged to him, saying "The aircraft will be situated in a multipurpose and entertainment centre which will open very soon. When opened, the centre will be the first of its kind in West Africa."
