A Max Air plane flying from Lagos has crash-landed at the Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport, Kano.
A passenger confirmed that the aircraft which arrived in Kano at about 10:57pm last night lost its nose landing gear tyre upon touchdown.
It was gathered that this development caused it to burst into flames before the plane skidded to a stop.
Emergency responders quickly arrived, and all passengers were safely evacuated.
No casualties were reported.
Authorities are investigating the cause of the incident, while Max Air is yet to issue an official statement.
