The moment a private jet touched down on a highway and shared a poorly constructed concrete road with other vehicles.

Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has described the controversial landing and subsequent takeoff of a private aircraft from a roadway near Asaba, Delta State, as a violation of aviation regulations and a matter of national security concern.

The aircraft, which reportedly could not land at the Asaba Airport on Wednesday morning, instead came down on a concrete road still under construction in the Ogwashi-Uku area, near the Delta State capital.
