Kechi Okwuchi who is one of the 2 people who survived the 2005 Sosoliso
Plane Crash that killed 60 young students of Loyola Jesuit College,
Abuja, just gave a wonderful inspiring performance at America’s Got Talent
2017 edition.
The Nigerian who has got everyone talking about her
performance, introduced herself and when asked why she fell in love with
music, she told her story, narrating how the plane ferrying 109 people
crashed, killing 107.
“I was in a plane crash when I was about 16 years old back in Nigeria. It took the lives of a 107 out of a 109 passengers, and I was one of the 2 survivors,” she said, adding that lying in the bed in the hospital and not being able to move, music was her escape.
In 2005, the ill-fated Sosoliso Airlines Flight 1145 carrying 109 people from Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport in Abuja crashed and erupted in flames at the Port Harcourt International Airport. 7 people were rescued from the burning plane, but only 2 survived the horror.
Kechi Okwuchi survived. For many years, she underwent various surgeries, endured pain and found solace in family and in music. Now, she wants to share her voice with the world, starting with America’s Got Talent.
