  "summary": "The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has supported President Bola Tinubu's call for a thorough investigation into the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) aircraft crash that occurred in Igbokoda, Ondo State. The crash, which involved an ATR-42 aircraft carrying military personnel and their families, prompted the Defence Headquarters to initiate an investigation. CAN president, Archbishop Daniel Okoh, emphasized the importance of ensuring the probe is professional, transparent, and that the resulting safety recommendations are implemented. Okoh expressed condolences to the families of the deceased and praised the dedication of the Nigerian Air Force personnel, urging continued efforts to strengthen aviation safety, aircraft maintenance, and emergency response systems.",
