ARIK AIRLINE, WHERE IS EDDY’S LUGGAGE
I was selected for the President Obama’s YALI Leadership Training scheduled to hold November 6th- December 9th 2016 at the Regional Leadership Centre in Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA) Accra, Ghana.
The organizers booked an Arik flight and my itinerary read,
Benin City Airport (BNI) – Muritala Muhammad International Airport, Lagos (LOS) 11:30am-12:30pm, Sunday November 6th

Muritala Muhammad International Airport (LOS)- Kotoka International Airport Accra ( ACC) 5:15pm ( Nigerian Time ) – 5:15pm (Ghana Time), Sunday November 6th 2016.

On Sunday November 6th, I went to Benin Airport with a brown coloured /Cream Coloured luggage and a hand luggage containing my laptop and travelling documents..
At the point of Check in BNI, the officials couldn’t print a luggage tag for me which weighed about 14 kg. They however took a sticky paper and wrote BNI-LOS, 18 Delta and attached it to the arm of the luggage and my boarding pass was given to me. After passing through the airport screening, I proceeded to the departure hall to wait for my flight.
At 11:15am, our flight to Lagos was announced and I went to board. Passengers on the Lagos bound flight W3 621 were asked to identify their luggage before entering the plane. I noticed my luggage was not among the ones they assembled. We searched the airport and the luggage of Passengers waiting to board Air Peace but it was not among them.
Meanwhile, while we were waiting for the Lagos Flight, An Arik flight to Abuja boarded and took off.
I was told to go to Lagos and complain when I arrive. They told me the luggage was mistakenly misrouted through the Abuja bound flight. Initially, I resisted going to Lagos and demanded that my luggage be provided before I leave Benin Airport.
While all these were going on, the flight was ready to take off. In fact the door was locked against me because I was delaying the flight which was supposed to leave by 11:30am. The flight ended up leaving at 11:52am.
On landing in Lagos, I laid a complaint at the baggage service. They called Abuja airport who confirmed that they are in possession of the luggage. ABJ was thereafter instructed to send the luggage through the 3:00pm flight to Lagos. The officials also assured me that when the luggage arrives the domestic wing, they will facilitate its movement to the international wing so I can get it before joining the connecting flight to Accra by 5:15pm.
I proceeded to the International wing of Lagos Airport and also complained. At the point of check in, the officials, also assured me that I will get my luggage before leaving Lagos. By 4pm, I called to inquire the status of the luggage and was informed that the Abuja flight was delayed. .
At 4:45pm , I called again and was told the flight was yet to leave Abuja.
The officials at Lagos, told me to proceed to board the Accra fight that they will send the luggage to Accra when it arrives in Lagos.
I proceeded to board the Flight W3 305 and left Nigeria around 5:26pm.
Upon arrival at Kotoka International Airport Accra, I complained at the baggage claim centre and the officials took the necessary details. I was told to check at the airport by 8:30pm when the last flight from Lagos arrives.
At 8:45 pm, I went to the airport and the luggage didn’t arrive. The official at the baggage service sent a mail to Lagos that night to put the luggage in the first flight for Monday November 7th.
The next day, I was at the airport as early as 7am, awaiting the arrival of the luggage, But it still didn’t come. I proceeded to Arik office in Kotoka Airport Ghana and while laying my complaint, the staff didn’t take me serious. Their attitude was nauseating, They were busy playing music , gisting and the person who was supposed to attend to me was busy chatting on whatsapp while I was talking to him. At that point, I was forced to shout on him and asked ‘ Sir , could it be because I am not in my country, that’s making you attend to me like this, or is this how Arik staff attend to customers? My shouting attracted Security officials who then calmed me down. One Mr David (Arik Air staff) thereafter took out time to listen to me. He called Abuja and Lagos Airport immediately to inquire the status of the lugagge. Abuja confirmed that they received the luggage but sent it to Lagos. The official at Lagos , One Mr Wasiu said he will contact the domestic wing of Lagos airport to inquire the status of the luggae.
That was how it ended that day. Mr Wasiu didn’t call back and he didn’t pick calls to his phone..

On Tuesday, November 8th, I also went to the airport to check the status of the luggage. The officials in Ghana called Lagos and they could not account for the luggage. At that point, it dawned on me that my luggage was nowhere to be found and might not be coming to Accra.
It’s been over 4 weeks now and as at the last time I checked at the airport, My luggage has still not arrived.

The non-arrival of my luggage for the training rendered me disorganized for over 4 weeks the training lasted.
For an airline that brags as West Africa and Nigeria’s largest airline, what does it take to transport a luggage from Lagos to Accra, a journey that is barely one hour? I am thoroughly convinced that Arik Air is inefficient with no respect for the wellbeing of their customers. I demand that my luggage be produced now because I won’t keep quiet until I get it.
Arik air, WHERE IS MY LUGGAGE

Nairaland / General / Arik Air Destabilises Obamas Africa Leadership Initiative by aprokomania(m): 7:31pm On Dec 04, 2016
Arik Air is giving Nigeria and Nigerians a very bad name.

One of the YALI Cohort 5 Fellows Ogbemudia Eddy Uwoghiren ; has not been able to retrieve his luggage since November 6.

He flew Arik and when he alighted at the airport , the luggage was missing.

The entire Nigerian team had a terrible time getting to Ghana also because Arik 's booking platform messed up and bookings could not be paid for.

That made the trip really stressful.

That Eddy's luggage is still missing till today is just unacceptable.

Imagine the trouble of being without your clothes and other personal items one month after you were on an Arik flight? What if he had precious documents in the luggage?

Does Arik have a monitoring and evaluation department?

Why are they always delaying flights?

While we were waiting for more information at the airport the first night before we left Nigeria, we realised that even those who got on the flight we were booked on, could not travel that night... The flight was delayed and they were also waiting at the airport.

It is very annoying that up till now Eddy's luggage is still missing...

Please , share this and help us ask #ArikAirWhereIsEddysLuggage ?

Arik Air needs to stop with this incompetence and non chalance with regards to the quality of their services.

His Twitter handle is @EddyKurrent

this is the shocker of the century to me. I never expected him to even conduct elections with opposition candidates, not to talk of conceding defeat.

Foreign Affairs / Adama Barrow Set To Rule Gambia, Yahya Jammeh Concedes Defeat by aprokomania(m): 2:07pm On Dec 02, 2016
A Former Argos security guard from North London is set to become the president of Gambia in an unprecedented upset for president Yahya Jammeh who had pledged to rule for a billion years.

President Jammeh, who has ruled the tiny West African nation for 22 years since he staged a coup, conceded defeat to opposition leader Adama Barrow, the chairman of the electoral commission on Friday morning.
"It's really unique that someone who has been ruling this country for so long has accepted defeat," Alieu Momar Njie told reporters.

Gambian state television told AFP that the 51-year-old head of state, who seized power in a coup in 1994, would make a statement later in the day to congratulate Barrow.

Jammeh was running for a fifth term with his Alliance for Patriotic Reorientation and Construction (APRC), while Barrow ran for eight political groups who united for the first time to field a single candidate.
Barrow, a previously unknown businessman, once worked as a security guard at Argos on Holloway Road, North London.

On Thursday, after voting with his wife in the capital, Banjul, President Jammeh predicted a decisive win.
"This will be the biggest landslide in the history of the country," he said, but Barrow correctly predicted Gambians were ready for change after more than 20 years of the Jammeh regime.

"He is not going to be re-elected - his era is finished," Barrow said.

Jammeh came to power in a coup in 1994 and then swept elections in 1996, 2001, 2006 and 2011 after a 2002 constitutional amendment removed presidential term limits.

Critics say those elections were not free and fair and accused his regime of corruption and flagrant human rights abuses.

The president's supporters praised his efforts to boost economic development in the small country that is dependent on tourism and agriculture.
More than 880,000 voters were registered to participate at more than 1,400 polling stations, where they were asked to place a marble in either a green, silver or purple drum depending upon their choice.
The African Union sent a handful of observers to this country of 1.9 million but there are no observers from the European Union or the West African regional bloc ECOWAS because the Gambian government did not grant them accreditation.
Jammeh said before the vote that he would not allow even peaceful demonstrations, dismissing them as "loopholes that are used to destabilise African governments."
In a statement Thursday, rights groups criticised the circumstances under which the vote took place, especially the cutting of internet services and international calls.

All internet services were blocked at about 8 pm Wednesday night, while messaging services such as Whatsapp and Viber were blocked weeks before the vote, Human Rights Watch said.
