Terrifying new dashcam footage shows moment doomed NBC helicopter falls out of the sky The terrifying moment an NBC helicopter fell out of the sky and plunged into the ground near where an SUV had slammed into a Metro bus was caught on dashcam. The video, obtained by KTLA, shows the helicopter descending, caught from afar on the vehicle camera of Yera Valencia. She said: “I downloaded the video of my dashcam. It’s a little dot on the video. It’s a crisp video and it just goes down.” She added: “God, it’s so close, it could have happened to anyone. My parents walk down the street.” The two back-to-back Tuesday night crashes resulted in five deaths — two involving the bus and SUV, and three as a result of the chopper going down, killing reporter Eliana Moreno, pilot George Marciniw and pedestrian Edy Gutierrez Mejia.

 NLC Cancels Centralized May Day Celebrations in Rivers, Edo Amid Governance and Interference Concerns


The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has canceled centralized May Day celebrations in Rivers and Edo States, citing the imposition of emergency rule in Rivers and alleged political interference in the Edo State council. The decision, announced in letters dated April 22, 2025, and signed by NLC Deputy General Secretary Ismail Bello, directs affiliated unions in both states to hold Workers’ Day events on May 1, 2025, at their respective secretariats.


In Rivers State, the NLC condemned the appointment of a sole administrator under emergency rule, calling for the restoration of elected governance. The letter to Rivers State NLC Chairman Alex Agwanwor instructed unions to organize a peaceful rally at the state NLC secretariat, focusing on advocating for democratic governance and improved worker welfare. The NLC stated, “Given the subversion of democratic governance in Rivers State, this occasion calls for critical reflection on the need to restore democratic rule.” Labour leaders in Rivers welcomed the directive, with the state’s Trade Union Congress (TUC) expressing readiness to join the NLC for a joint event.


In Edo State, the NLC directed unions to commemorate May Day independently at their offices due to an ongoing leadership crisis exacerbated by alleged government interference. The letter to Edo State NLC Chairman Olaye Odion emphasized efforts to resolve internal divisions and ensure unity. The NLC also debunked a fraudulent circular, purportedly from an “Acting State Secretary,” directing workers to attend a government-organized parade. Bello clarified that no such position exists and described the individual as an “impostor.” The NLC reaffirmed that Comrade Bernard Joman Egwakhide is not recognized as the state chairman and warned against government-led events, stating, “May Day is a workers’ celebration, not a government’s event.”


The NLC’s decision follows strained relations with the Edo State Government, which has reportedly rejected Odion’s leadership and fostered factionalism within the state council. Despite mediation attempts by the NLC and the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment, the government has allegedly resisted calls to respect the NLC’s independence. Ministry officials emphasized the NLC’s status as an internationally recognized body, but sources indicate little progress has been made.


An NLC official revealed that the cancellation of centralized events in Edo aims to prevent potential clashes between the recognized state council and state-backed factions, citing violent incidents in Imo State two years ago. The NLC reiterated its commitment to resolving the Edo crisis and ensuring a peaceful, worker-focused May Day.


This year’s May Day theme, “Reclaiming the Civic Space in the Midst of Economic Hardship,” will be observed across Nigeria’s 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, with Rivers and Edo unions adapting to the NLC’s directives amid these challenges.
