Some humans are born selfless and simply do not mind putting their lives on the line in order to save others.
This is exactly the case with a departed Nigerian army aircraft pilot who virtually laid his life down to save residents in Abuja.
On Sunday, February 21, 2021, a Nigerian military plane crashed while approaching the Abuja Airport.
A number of military personnel were believed to be onboard the plane when it suffered engine failure en riute Minna.
Gadzama was the pilot. African Entertainment understands that while death was stirring him in the face, he did everything possible prevent the plane crashing into a residential area.
