SAFETY BREACH: NCAA SUSPENDS VALUEJET PILOTS

The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) confirms that it has received reports concerning a serious breach of aviation safety protocols by a ValueJet pilot at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja (Domestic Terminal) on Tuesday, August 5, 2025.

Preliminary information indicates that the pilot in question commenced departure procedures from the designated bay without adhering to the mandatory pre-departure clearance protocols.

This reckless action endangered the safety of ground personnel and other airport users, contravening established civil aviation regulations and international safety standards.

The NCAA views this incident with utmost seriousness.

Consequently, the Authority has taken immediate enforcement action by suspending the licences of the pilot, Captain Oluranti Ogoyi, and the co- pilot, First officer Ivan Oloba with immediate effect.

This suspension will remain in place pending the conclusion of a full investigation into the incident.

The Authorty hereby reaffirms all stakeholders of its commitment to safety.

Signed:
Michael Achimugu
Director, Public Affairs and Consumer Protection.

this is the picture the company used to market its brand, then it's honestly just sad clear proof the owners are hungry. The whole thing looks like the usual low-budget stuff, with poses like they’ve never seen a bag before.

It's an aviation company.

How much does it cost to buy or charter a plane?

Owners are hungry indeed!
