The President Bola Tinubu-led Federal Government has extended its condolences to the Government and People of the Republic of Korea following the tragic crash of Jeju Air Flight 2216, which resulted in the deaths of 179 passengers.
The incident occurred on Sunday, December 29, 2024, when the Boeing 737-800, returning from Bangkok, Thailand, crash-landed at Muan International Airport in southern Korea.
