You value lives in Nigeria? Definitely not when those lives are from Benue and lost in the hands of herdsmen.

Lol but the company has protocols. Why break protocol over a customer's selfishness? They're professionals at their job, so they should know better. They have no chance at winning this case, no matter the evidence.

It will be series of letigations and legal battles

Very good. The Nigerian Government will give the Ogunbanjos all the support too.

That helicopter company must be held to full account. If they love to waste the lives of their own citizens, too bad for them, but the Ogunbanjos of Erunwon, Ijebu Ode, will have none of it.

It's so upsetting how they kill people in helicopter crashes in the US and just move on as if it's normal to waste lives. It's alien to us here in Nigeria o. We value lives and family from where we come from.

There is nothing bad in a helicopter as a means of transport. Calverton services and related companies have been operating private helicopter charter services on Lagos Island since God knows when. We've not seen incidents like these. I really don't know why frequent accidents happen in the US.

It's a click bait post and I blame the mod that moved it to FP. If the post mentioned only ogunbanjo, people might not be interested but it's all shades of wrong to mention herbert family.

If it happened in Nigeria, it will be an international news and not just another day at the office in your so called advanced country and the company will be sued if it's negligence on their side in Nigeria.

The billionaires who went out with Stockton Rush knew it was a choppy day at sea, but often times their pockets and brains don't align.

Too much of everything is bad. Just like too little is.

Similar to my thinking as well! A part of me is a bit angry with Herbert! As smart as he is, and seeing how he couldn’t go by plane owing to bad weather, then bearing in mind what happened to Kobe Bryant, he still elected to board a helicopter with his wife, first son and friend!? And it’s not as if where they were headed was a so important that they couldn’t wait….even if it meant missing part of the Super Bowl opening ceremony!

I support your move. The family needs to cash out

Insurance is a big cash out for the families already.

Igbos are so good in court cases but they don't have finishing.

Reason for the crash and investigation needs to be demanded first then you go further.

Hahaha

The company will do a counter suit by providing evidence proves that it was actually your son, his wife and son that were inpatient.

That they insisted the pilot should fly the plan even with all the bad weather signal because they don't want to miss the SuperBowl....


And their lawyers would also reply that if the passengers had instructed the pilots to fly into a volcano, would they have obeyed? As long as they can prove that going by aviation rules, the helicopter should not have been airborne at that time, the helicopter charter company would lose and probably opt for a huge settlement with the families of the deceased.

Helicopters have a good advantage too.
So many flights helicopters can do and jet engine aircraft cannot do.

They were booked to fly to super bowl

And guess what? The helicopter company decided to give a huge settlement to the family of Kobe Bryant - they anticipated that they would lose so they quickly settled.

But did it bring Kobe and his daughter back to life?

E reach to ask oo, I thought parachute is meant for escaping aviation calamity?
Is it like when the helicopter starts messing up, they can't jump out and pull the parachute thing out?
Anyone using a helicopter should be putting on a parachute in case of misfortune.
