The National Emergency Management Agency said that “the bodies of the six passengers on-board the helicopter” had been taken to the “mortuary”, while a statement from the ruling party confirmed that Kaduna state Governor Patrick Ibrahim Yakowa and ex-national security advisor Owoye Azazi were among the victims.
