The incident triggers an emergency response after a small fire erupts near the gear well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aircraft, registered as 5N-MBD, departs Yola at 14:05 carrying 143 passengers, one infant, and six crew members. Aviation Herald reports one tire burst during takeoff from Yola, followed by both left main gear failures upon Abuja landing at 15:01.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The damaged landing gear leaves visible markings on the tarmac as the metal structure grinds against the runway surface. Airport firefighters deploy water trucks and hoses to contain the resulting gear fire, demonstrating rapid emergency response protocols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airport authorities initiate immediate closure of Abuja&#8217;s sole runway to facilitate aircraft removal. Ground crews document extensive damage to the left landing gear assembly, with complete rubber tire displacement evident in photographs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned with us.
