“It would have been remembered as a day of sorrow because of the helicopter crash on February 2, 2019 involving me and 11 others but we thank God it is instead a day of victory and thanksgiving,” he stated on Facebook.

THE WHISTLER reported that the chopper conveying the vice president and others from Abuja, crash-landed at the Kabba township stadium in Kogi state.

He was on the re-election campaign of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Reacting to the development, President Muhammadu Buhari had noted his visionary attitude towards the well being of Nigeria.

“We give glory to Almighty God for sparing your life. I’m impressed by your tenacious spirit which enabled you to continue on your campaign engagement, despite the shock of the crash,” he had written in a letter.
