The aircraft is operated by the Aviation Training School, Ilorin, Kwara State.

The incident occurred at 17:28 local time on May 23, 2025, during a simulated instrument approach on Runway 05 at Ilorin International Airport.

The aircraft veered off the runway and came to a stop on the grass verge. Two occupants were on board. Both sustained serious injuries and were swiftly evacuated to a medical facility, coordinated by the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA).

In response, the NSIB Go-Team is currently preparing to depart from Abuja to Ilorin to conduct on-site investigations.
