Owerri, Imo State — An aircraft operated by Skypower Express crash-landed near Sam Mbakwe International Cargo Airport, Owerri, on Tuesday evening following an in-flight emergency, officials confirmed on Wednesday.

The Cessna 172 light aircraft, registered 5N-ASR, was en route from Kaduna International Airport to Port Harcourt International Airport when the flight crew declared an emergency and diverted to Owerri shortly before 8:00 p.m. local time.

According to the Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB), the aircraft crashed in the approach area of Runway 17 after the emergency was declared. Emergency response teams at the airport were immediately activated and arrived on the scene to assist.

Officials reported that no fatalities occurred among the four people on board — including crew and passengers — and that there was no post-crash fire. Despite the crash, airport operations continued, with other flights taking off and landing safely.

Recovery and Investigation Efforts

Recovery operations are ongoing as authorities work to evacuate the distressed aircraft from the crash site and facilitate a detailed examination of the wreckage.
