A reader sent us these startling image of an observation made by one of their company expatriates, Jose de Castro, allegedly of a passenger seat belonging to Arik Airline

In addition to the shocking eyesore of a seat on the plane allegedly belonging to Arik, their flight this afternoon to Port Harcourt even had to be aborted and the plane turned back mid mid-air.

Jose De Castro alleges that the reason for this is because the air conditioning wasn't working so the overwhelming heat caused an elderly person to suffer 'heat stress', which necessitated the flight returning to Lagos.

See below the photo of the eye sore seat and people's shocked reactions

Nah Mama peace get me Now

They should better address this issue... We don't need an Air crash rite now.

Lalasticlalaa where is the minister of aviation oo

Abeg this is not possible...

With pictures.... Adontbelieveit...
It looks like an abandoned greyhound bus

*pukes*

Playing games with people life..... Dey better use that money they will use to compensate peoples family in future to put things in order

Was this not the Arik someone said will replace British Airways when they finally leave
Tufiakwa!

Lol. This is Naija nau. you should have checked into the plane with a little pillow. That's not so difficult to do!


Make suffer and hardship no go kill Nigerians.

"Maintenance"...Something we dont seem to understand in this part of d world....
Nawa o!

I honestly find this difficult to believe. click like if you also doubt this

Arik luxurious bus

Not surprised

Nigeria!!!!!!! I weep for thee

.......thought they've closed them out of business. What are they still doing in the air?

Wailers will soon descend on this thread to blame Buhari for the dirty Arik seat

They are on their way

This one na small pikin work... And that means the airline doesn't regularly run maintenance checks

Arik are just fvcked up.
That said, next time, please endeavour to carry along your white plastic chair

Very useless airline.

Did they force you to sit on the pit abeg take danfo if you dont like arik at least there are options ....

No Ac?......yeepa abi Na Phcn light Arik planes dey use power their ACs?

What's wrong with that seat? Must the seat be new. Must you put ac all the time?

An someone was rejoicing that Arik will take up the slack caused by the departing American airlines just because he cannot come to terms with the failings of his pet administration. To ferry whom or what in these kinds of planes abeg. Talk of a local lizard trying to be an exotic American alligator. Can't provide decent seats. You can then imagine what is going on in the turbine assembly. God bless Rolls Royce or GE.

Ministry of Aviation how far? Only good in taking bribes

Just imagine

Gawd! My eyes are pushing me, Arik disgracing Nigerian since 1960

Hmm..that seat is a microcsm of the state of naija at the moment. Nigeria jaga,jaga. Everything scatter,scatter
