Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu on Saturday allayed fears about his safety following Friday\u2019s air crash near the Ladoke Akintola Airport in Ibadan, Oyo State.<\/p>\n

A source close to the Minister told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Ibadan that Adelabu was in good spirits and not perturbed by the incident.<\/p>\n

A private aircraft which had the minister and some of his aides on board crash-landed near the airport late Friday evening.<\/p>\n

\u201dThe minister feels the incident is not something to worry about. It was actually a minor thing, and that is how he has taken it,\u201d an aide of Adelabu, who asked to stay anonymous, said.<\/p>\n

The aide further told NAN that the minister was particularly not worried by the incident because it did not involve any of the passengers leaving with any injury.<\/p>\n

\u201dEveryone on board the aircraft when the incident happened actually alighted without any problem, and we have no cause to worry,\u201d the aide added.<\/p>\n

The aircraft had departed Abuja with Ibadan as its destination, but landed about 50 metres short of the threshold and skidded into a ditch close to the runway.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau, NSIB, in a statement issued on Saturday, said it had commenced investigation into the cause of the incident.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn the accident involving an aircraft operated by Flint Aero which occured at the Samuel Ladoke Akintola Airport Ibadan, please be informed that the Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB) has commenced investigation into the cause.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur investigators are on site and further information will be provided as soon as possible,\u201d NSIB said in the statement issued by its Director, Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Dr James Odaudu.<\/p>\n
