Maku recalled how he narrowly escaped being on the ill-fated helicopter with Yakowa and Aziza. The minister said that he; a former Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission, Mr. Timi Alaibe; and an aide of the Vice-President, Mr. Umar Sani, were initially billed to travel on the same helicopter alongside Yakowa and Azazi. He said, “When we met in Bayelsa, it was a twist of fate that we did not board the same helicopter because on that day, the Special Adviser to the Vice President, Sani Umar; myself and (a former Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission) Timi Alaibe, were supposed to travel together with the two of them (Yakowa and Azazi) back to Port Harcourt. He said, “Somehow, just before we could take off from the funeral arena, Sani backed out and decided to travel alone. I stood up and was going together with them (Yakowa and Azazi) but by some involuntary actions, I returned to my seat. “I said I would wait for a moment. That was simply the twist of fate that kept us alive, we must give glory to God.” http://www.punchng.com/news/we-almost-travelled-in-crashed-copter/ [color=#000099][/color] |

ikaboy: Lol. Was about writing this too, just wondering, first it was Timi Dakolo and now the others have joined the bandwagon. I'm sure their motive is either to generate publicity or prove that they were holier than the others. But for those who truly missed the ill fated crash, it goes a long way to reflect Eccl 9:11-12. 11 I took another walk around the neighborhood and realized that on this earth as it is— The race is not always to the swift, Nor the battle to the strong, Nor satisfaction to the wise, Nor riches to the smart, Nor grace to the learned. Sooner or later bad luck hits us all. 12 No one can predict misfortune. Like fish caught in a cruel net or birds in a trap, So men and women are caught By accidents evil and sudden. Wisdom Is Better than Muscle. |
