Governor Adeleke, Aide Reportedly Cheats Death As Private Jet Catches Fire

 

Tragedy was recently averted when a private jet owned by Nigerian billionaire businessman, Chief Adedeji Adeleke, caught fire while taking off at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) in Lagos

Chief Adeleke is the father of Afrobeat star, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido.

He is also the brother of Osun State governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke.

Chief Adeleke owns the Bombadier Global Express 6000 involved in the incident. The jet is used as a family plane by the Adelekes.

According to the report, the incident occurred at the domestic wing of the Airport at about 9 a.m. on Tuesday, September 5, 2023, when the jet was about to take off from Lagos to Abuja.

However, the incident wasn’t formally communicated to the concerned aviation regulatory authorities, a development that is against standard protocol.

According to the report, Governor Adeleke and his top aides were on board the aircraft when the incident occurred.

It was learnt that the aircraft had taxied to the end of the runway, shortly before departure, when a loud explosion was heard from the engine of the jet, causing it to abort take-off immediately.

“No deaths or injuries were reported, and other passengers in the plane as of the time of the incident could not be ascertained,” a source says

It was also gathered that the jet had been parked at the Executive Jet hanger of the airport before it was deployed on September 5.

However, according to the report, there were no injuries or deaths recorded from the incident.
