The governor described the incident as a national tragedy, stating that no survivors had been found and the main wreckage of the aircraft was yet to be located, believed to be submerged in a swamp. Aiyedatiwa directed the state Ministry of Works to deploy two amphibious swamp machines to improve access to the challenging terrain and support the Nigerian Navy, Air Force, National Emergency Management Agency, State Emergency Management Agency, and local divers involved in the operation.",
