CEO of Life Imprints Consulting, Kelechi Anyalechi, has narrated how he narrowly escaped a plane crash on his way to Jos in Plateau State for the Revamp Africa school program.
The multi-gifted social entrepreneur and founder of REVAMP Africa who didn’t name the airline said the plane was about to land in Jos when the pilot suddenly took off again at a very high speed.
“For the next ten minutes, we were not sure what the issue was. I had noticed that we almost landed because I could see the tarmac and surrounding green field.
“The pilot announced about ten minutes later that our plane couldn’t land in Jos due to very low visibility. We were going to land in Abuja. Another announcement came twenty minutes after that we were going back to Lagos.

“We were on the plane for over three hours. My wife and sister couldn’t tell our whereabouts. The airline did not help matters either when they were called on the phone. Imagine the uncertainties of those hours of not being able to reach me,” he said.
Anyalechi who has authored eight bestselling books said he was grateful to God that the pilot did not risk landing the plane. “I’m still processing the experience and taking internal life notes,” he added.
