Omoyele Sowore, the presidential candidate for the African Action Congress (AAC), has visited the site of a recent Nigerian Air Force aircraft crash in Igbokoda, Ondo State. During his visit, Sowore formally demanded an independent investigation into the incident to determine the cause of the disaster.

The call for a transparent inquiry comes in the wake of the crash, which occurred in the Igbokoda area. By traveling to the scene, the AAC candidate aimed to assess the situation firsthand and emphasize the need for accountability regarding the safety of military assets and personnel.

Sowore’s statement highlights a broader concern over the handling of such incidents, asserting that an independent probe is necessary to ensure that all facts are established without bias. The demand reflects a push for clarity and justice in the aftermath of the tragic event.

The Nigerian Air Force has not yet released a detailed official report on the specific circumstances surrounding the crash in Igbokoda. However, the intervention by a high-profile political figure has drawn significant public attention to the matter.

As the investigation into the aircraft crash continues, stakeholders are awaiting further official communications regarding the findings and any subsequent actions taken by the relevant authorities.
