Is The FG Ultimately To Blame For Our Aviation Mishaps? by texazzpete(m): 9:00am On Oct 29, 2013 |
Saw this great editorial in Vanguard http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/10/frightening-revelations-planes-may-keep-dropping-skies/ What this means is that there appears to be a fundamental problem in the system that has not been addressed, and that has to do with policies enunciated for the industry by government. There is a suggestion that no matter the volume of safety audit conducted on airlines, safety would remain elusive as long as the operating environment created for airlines remained harsh. I agree with this premise. anyone who has booked a flight online in the past few years will see that FG & Aviation agency taxes make up more than 50% of the ticket price (sometimes, much more) and the high price of aviation fuel is well known (shameful for an oil producing nation). With marginal profitability, the airlines have to cut corners, sometimes compromising safety. This is not to say the airlines are not culpable. Safety MUST NEVER be compromised, doing so is just plain criminal. But one has to imagine that the FG needs to make the business climate much less hostile to the carriers. A sensible thing to do will be to provide significant tax breaks for carriers that can demonstrate a world-class level of safety. That way, the money that will be spent on stringent safety checks will not be seen as an unnecessary burden. 1 Like |

Why blame FG, am thinking the pilots are not properly skilled. Well plane crashes happen everywhere, the other day poland lost her top politicians in a crash, but isn't it happening too often in nigeria? |
Re: Is The FG Ultimately To Blame For Our Aviation Mishaps? by waleadex(m): 10:05am On Oct 29, 2013 |
Of course yes,FG is to blame. An experience person is expected to be in charge of the ministry,then other things follow. The minister is expected to oversee the works of all agencies attached to the ministry. Having said that,any of its affiliated agencies are expected to scrutinize the employment of the pilots,the crew etc in other to ensure that perfect hands are at work. Yes,plane mishaps happen everywhere in the world but it is becoming to often in Nigeria. |

Uyi Iredia: We the people are to blame: we deserve the government we get. From your point of view, u lack moralitism of viewing a government as cause a lot of stupidity on accumulation to your knowledge of understanding. Are you telling us that we deserve what we want when we all believe that GEJ we bring us out of charcoal of bad governance? You're a great mumulistic who grow up under acrobatically hot environment. |

L.M Ayedun..: I'm tired of hearing this, gaddemit, google "act-of-god" to know the meaning. Didn't u do a bit of literature in school? WIKIPEDIA = "Act of God is a legal term for events outside human control, such as sudden floods or other natural disasters, for which no one can be held responsible." http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Act_of_God In simple words, Act of God meant no could have prevented the crash,. 1 Like |

Akinmail: When is olamide's album coming out 200 people dead in two years from air mishaps in Nigeria. At least 3 Lucky escapes recorded in the past 4 months that could have added another 100 minimum to that toll.
