to the scene, we saw the plane on the building and it did not explode upon
landing.
The only fire from the aircraft was from the cockpit which was not
much. It was only ten of us that first got to the scene. That little fire would
have been quenchable if there was immediate emergency response from fire
fighters. We were even using sachets of pure water to put off the fire before we
heard loud explosion after 20 minutes.’’

It was further gathered that the absence of
emergency response from concerned authorities, prompted one of the eyewitnesses
at the scene to call the Chairperson of Local the Government, who informed the
Lagos State Government.

‘’When we discovered that emergency rescue
service was not on sight, my wife had to call the chairperson of the local
government, who informed Fashola’s people. It was that call that altered the
authorities. But if the rescue service had arrived on time, they would have been
saved because there was no fire when the plane landed on the buildings.

The
pilot of the aircraft was very brave because we noticed it from the way the
