The management of Air Peace has said its aircraft en-route Ilorin from Abuja only had  “minimal tyre burst” and described as “sensational publication of falsehood” the report the airplane crashed.

The management said the tire burst occurred after the aircraft landed at the Ilorin international airport, Kwara state and the passengers were seamlessly disembarked from the plane.

There were reports on social media on Friday that the B737-500 aircraft with registration number 5N-BQR crash landed at the Ilorin airport.

Reacting to the news, Air Peace, in a statement on Saturday sent to TheCable, described the report as “sensational publication of falsehood”, noting that no such incident happened.

“For the record, no such thing happened. The reports misrepresented and exaggerated the facts. We can confirm that the aircraft in question landed safely but had a minimal tyre burst while taxing,” the statement reads.

“This debunks all the mischievously headlined reports circulating online, which should be disregarded.

“Our aircraft neither crashed nor crash landed in Ilorin or in any place for that matter. This kind of sensationalism is bad and was intended to cause panic in the minds of the flying public.

“It was duly reported to the authorities and passengers disembarked seamlessly. The tyres have, however, been fixed and the aircraft is intact. We condemn sensational publication of falsehood.”
