Reports indicate the pilot of the helicopter, registration number 5Y0Y0, made the emergency landing minutes after 7am in the Arrow Roots (Nduma) farm.

The incident comes barely a week after a Internal Security Minister George Saitoti and his Assistant Orwa Ojode perished in a tragic helicopter crash in Ngong forest.
