VerseNews reports that the incident occurred around 11 am on Friday, and the jet, with registration number N580KR, overshot the runway into the nearby bush.

The jet was reported to have come from Abuja, and while it landed safely, it overshot the runway during the landing.

“It was a private plane from Abuja. It landed safely but overshot the runway. There was no casualty,” a spokesperson for the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, NCAA, Carol Adekotujo, told Channels.

In a similar incident in November, the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, escaped death when a plane he was on board crash-landed at the same airport.
