Bayelsa Helicopter Crash: Chopper Exploded Before Crashing by geez1: 9:36am On Dec 16, 2012
It has been reported that the ill-fated helicopter, that the governor of Kaduna state, Patrick Yakowa, a former National Security Adviser, Owoye Azazi, and four others, were travelling in, burst into flames, before plunging into the creeks.

The Presidency released a statement last night, confirming that Yakowa and Azazi, and their aides, Dauda Tsoho and Mohammed Kama; and the pilots, Murtala Daba and Adeyemi Sowole, reportedly died in the crash. Eye witnesses say they were burnt beyond recognition.

The chopper is owned by the Nigerian Navy and is said to have been shuttling repeatedly between Port Harcourt, Yenogoa and Okoroba, the town where an aide to President Goodluck Jonathan, Oronto Douglas, was burying his father over the weekend. The governor and the former Security chief, were on their way to Port Harcourt, enroute Abuja.

Multiple reports say the carrier wobbled shortly after it stabilized in air and then plummeted into the swamps around 2.30pm.

This is the third air disaster this year, after a Dana plane crashed on June 3, killing all 153 passengers on board. Another crash which involved Taraba State’s governor, Danbaba Suntai, occured in October, leaving him brain-dead.

Just learn to accept destiny. Beside was loyal to North Leadership establishment. He favor them more than his christian tribal people. To be honest, how I see it, Yakowa is just lucky to be the Governor of KD, which I believe they won't be any christian to smell that Gov's seat. We just have to accept it Kaduna is muslim dominated state, and there is nothing we can do to change these. A state where Christian have only One senatorial zone, even in the Christian Senatorial there are large number of muslim population. When Yakowa was the Gov, his deputy, SSG, Head of Civil service, Speaker, Head of Traditional Council all are muslims. Let's Accept this, all this insult won't bring him back. From what I heard in the News, a New Gov have been swear in

A hausa man called dat he is happy over d governor's death, dat his person wil now take over, when the presenter tried to let him knw dat it was wrong, d man insisted dat, dats his own way of condolence. A friend called frm Zaria dat there is alot of jubilation takin place over there. And i wonder why sombody wil be happy dat someone is dead. No human feelin. Nigeria, God wil help us.

I suspect sabotage. A well-maintained and expertly manned aircraft/helicopter doesn't just drop from the sky.

People seem hell bent on igniting KD with spurious claims and wild theories, but they never blink an eye lid when the masses die in clearly "avoidable" deaths! It seems Nigerians are hell bent on make the 2015 prediction come a reality indeed!
