No aircraft is safe – Reno Omokri reacts to shooting down of NAF jetPublished on July 25,

Reno Omokri, former media aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has expressed worries that bandits terrorizing many parts of the country may resort to attacking commercial aircrafts.

Omokri stated this on Sunday while reacting to the recent military plane crash which occured on Saturday last week in Zamfara State, Northwest.

Recall that a Nigerian Air Force Alpha Jet was shot down by bandits. The pilot, Flight Lieutenant Abayomi Dairo, was rescued.

Reacting to the development, Omokri said if the criminal elements can possess “surface to air missiles that can bring down a military jet”, even commercial aircraft may not be safe.

The socio-political activist made the remark in a post on his official Facebook page.

The post reads, “The cavalier manner the Buhari regime is taking the downing of an airforce jet by bandits does not augur well for Nigeria’s national security. If bandits now possess surface to air missiles that can bring down a military jet, then how safe is civilian aviation in Nigeria?

“I urge General Buhari to snap out of his Igboho fixation and acknowledge the reality that no plane flying over Nigeria is safe. The jet that was shot down is an Alpha Jet and costs close to $1 million. It flies at 50,000 feet above ground. If bandits can shoot it down, they can shoot any jet in Nigeria down, military or civilian.

“Nigerians are going to see a dramatic rise in costs of tickets for both international and domestic flights, because flights are going to reduce as a result of this incident. And those flights that continue to operate will be forced to take out very high hazard insurance premiums.

“While these bandits may be from a particular ethnic group, they are not necessarily from Nigeria. Many of them are disaffected Fulani from Mali where they have been fighting the government there. They are rugged and war hardened. They can bring Nigeria to her knees if we continue ignoring them.

“And we must note that the plane that was shot down was shot down at night. These guys are trigger happy and according to reports in the media, they also use drugs. What if a commercial plane flies over their hideout at night. Are they not paranoid enough to shoot it down thinking it is a military jet?”

BUT WHEN ZOMBIES GO GET SENSE?


They justified the onslaught on ESN/UGM with the excuse that the redline was crossed when they attached police stations

Bandits have crossed all redline so far, they shoot down planes which is a Terrorist act globally

They attack policemen in their stations and burn them down


When would they get buhari language?

The service Ceiling of the Alpha Jet is 50 thousand feet , it's top speed is 1,160 kms per hour yet the Bandits have some weapon in their possession that can easily hit it ....for comparison your Boeing 737 has a service ceiling of 39 thousand feet and a top speed of about 800 kms an hour and commercial speed of about 600 kms an hour ....what ever hit that alpha can hit any commercial plane much more easier

The altitude it was flying shouldn't be the bone of contention. Rather an alpha jet was shutdown by bandits. If you don't see the danger that portends... then you're irredeemable.

Gumi has answers to all the questions you raised. He knows the sponsors of those terrorists,where they get their weapons and who their suppliers are! Gumi however,is untouchable just like the fulani bandits and herdsmen ! Buhari can however, use the last resources of Nigeria to haunt down the likes of Igboho and Kanu !

Bandits are not terrorists. They are just doing business transactions. Sunday igboho is the terrorist for not killing anyone

The plane was brought down by AA guns from Libya. The pilot flew at low altitude because Alpha Jet F7 is meant for training and not war fare. Most time pilot need low altitude to hit targets. Bandits don't have stinger which can bring down planes from 20,000 feet. The planes from China JU 17 should be use against Bandits

Gumi-the PRO of ministery of bandits/terrorist affairs once said it that "Bandits are gathering money to obtain anti-aircraft guns." Today, that perception is now reality.
https://www.thecable.ng/bandits-gathering-money-to-purchase-anti-aircraft-missiles-says-gumi/amp

So how did Gumi know this startling info yet DSS, Army etc can't code? Still affirming that Nigeria have a terrorist government in place?
