Taraba State Governor, Danbaba Suntai Involved in Aircrash
Sad news just reaching us is that the Governor of Taraba State, Danbaba Danfulani Suntai has been involved in an aircrash at the Yola Airport in Adamawa state.
Though the details are still sketchy, it was reported that the governor was in a small plane piloted by him. It was also reported that two other people in the plane sustained severe injuries.
More details coming soon…
UPDATE:
It was reported that the aircraft, a Cessna 208 5N-BMJ with six people on board including crew, operated by the Taraba State Government departed Jalingo, Taraba for Yola yesterday evening and reported contact with the Yola Control Tower (1720Z) and field in sight at 38 miles estimating landing at 1730Z. The pilot subsequently lost contact with Yola Control Tower and subsequent effort to raise the aircraft failed.

Gross negligence on his part. The pilot professional requires constant training and re-certification so that he is a qualified pilot means nothing. When was the last time he received training or got re-certified????
Very sad that the other crew members’ lives he jeopardised were not seen as ‘substantial’ enough to warrant flown to Germany to receive better medical care. If the Gov wanted to fly, he should have included his wife and kids in the plane as crew and not poor souls. Terrible shame on Nigeria! I feel pity for the people of Yola/Taraba cos the money that should have been used to provide better hospitals, schools, etc is now been wasted to treat the careless Gov in Germany – real shame!!!
If any of the other crew members die of their injusires – I propose the sue the Gov 9if he survives his own injuries) and label him a murderer.
Hoenstly, teh story leaves a bitter taste – it shows the little value we place on common citizens of the country…I pray God teaches him a great lesson through this and that he learns…necxt time, play Russian Roulette with your family’s lives not others…
