Lere Olayinka, the aide to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has debunked reports by bloggers that his principal almost got involved in a plane crash.

One of such report stated: "The FCT minister, Nyesom Wike's plane almost crashed today. He turns to a prayer warrior and begs God to save him."

A video shared showed some pilots inside the cockpit of an aeroplane while a voice attributed to Wike could be heard praying to God to take control.

The voice said, “Satan, you are liar! Father father! Oh Jehovah. Blood of Jesus. Father, it is time to prove yourself. Jesus, you are in charge. — Ohhhh Jehovah. Father!! Satan is a liar. Father, save my soul, save my soul, save my soul. Ohh my father Oh my father!”

Reacting, Wike's aide gave reasons why the video is fake.

He said on X, "Private Jet with only you and your friends or family members on board. Who will record such video and shared it on Social Media? You, your friend or family member? And plane was having issues on air, only your voice was heard, others were calm. Dem chop winch abi? Make una dey use una sense small small nah."
