NNPC Continues Search for Bodies After Port Harcourt Helicopter Crash
The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has provided an update on the ongoing search efforts following Thursday’s tragic helicopter crash in Port Harcourt.
The crash, involving a helicopter operated by East Winds Aviation, left three people confirmed dead, with their bodies recovered from the damage.
However, NNPC confirmed that despite thorough search and rescue operations, no additional bodies have been found so far.
In a statement shared on their X account, Olufemi Soneye, NNPC’s Chief Corporate Communications Officer, expressed deep sympathy for the families affected by this incident.
He assured the public that the search for any remaining passengers continues, with NNPC actively collaborating with rescue teams and relevant authorities.
The crash has shaken Port Harcourt and raised questions about air safety, particularly in helicopter services within the oil-rich Niger Delta region.
East Winds Aviation, the operator of the flight, provides essential air transportation for companies operating in remote and challenging environments, often transporting personnel and goods to onshore and offshore oil facilities.
As search teams continue their work, the families of those still missing wait anxiously for answers.
NNPC has reassured them of its unrelenting efforts to locate their loved ones and bring closure to this sorrowful chapter.
The company has requested the public’s thoughts and prayers, emphasizing that in such moments, community solidarity and support mean more than ever.
Aliko Dangote speaks on his lineage and addresses not having a son as he was asked about not having a son to carry his name and achievements.
“That is not my priority because God controls everything. You can pray for God to give you a son, but he might be the one to take down the name of the family.”
Instead, he shared that he does not mind not having a son. “I don’t think a son would have done better than the three daughters I have.”
Aside from that, he was also asked about giving advice to young Nigerians. “Work hard, be consistent, focused and know what you want to do.”
It can be reported that following Aliko Dangote’s investment opportunity, some investment platforms are experiencing huge traffic, causing their platforms to become slow and go down.
Two platforms openly announced their issues. Bamboo said “Hey everyone, we’re getting a much higher than expected traffic trying to get into the Dangote IPO and it’s making it difficult for some users to log into the Bamboo app. We’re working on a fix and it will be up and running shortly.”
Cowrywise also said “We’re currently seeing more traffic than usual on the Cowrywise app. Our team is already on it and working to get things back to normal. Thanks for your patience, everyone.”
Nigerian economist Bismarck Rewane advises Nigerians financially, sharing that Nigerians should engage in the Dangote Refinery initial public offering (IPO). He stated that it was a good investment.
He shared “You are better off with your N5,000 share than selling your PVC for N10,000 or N15,000 and consuming it,” Rewane said.
“If you can get 10 million shareholders to participate in the IPO, the Dangote Refinery will have the largest number of shareholders in the world,” he said.
