Nigeria was shamed first. Imagine Burkinafaso detaining Nigeria's military aircraft and 11 officers for over 1 week. See his fast everything about this shithole is deteriorating - a country glorified by God, ruined by politicians. It is really a shame.

That is the standard procedure anywhere in the world!

We need to designate Sahara news and the Owners as people and organization of perticular Concern

It is possible this is even a lamba.

No be Naija again.

If it was Russia, you would have been mourning the 11 troops by now
You don't mess around the airspace of a hostile country

Since when did Burkina Faso which is also a West African country become a hostile country where Nigeria is concerned?!

Waiting for other blogs to say something contrary

The military governments of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, united under the Alliance of Sahel States (AES), issued a joint statement late Monday describing the incident as a confirmed “violation of its airspace and the sovereignty of its member states.”

Since they are no longer ECOWAS and they can all gang up and lie over NAF violating their airspace when permission was granted by both the airport's ATC and regulatory body after the crew of the C-130 Cargo aircraft requested emergency landing, its only best that our borders be permanently closed to these rogue led countries.

Any and all their citizens in Nigeria should be rounded up and deported asap.

They never detained them. Abeg.

No no dey fear face

You think the plane just landed in Russia without contacting the airport's control towers for authorisation? Dey play! Russia will shoot down any unauthorized aircraft in their airspace and nothing will happen just as they shot down a Malaysian aircraft on their airspace killing almost 300 people and nothing happened!

To the shame of the Angry birds
Who want nothing good for Nigeria

Nigeria is your father!!!
Whether you like it or not

That is why all your curses have always found a way to land on your own head

They want something good for Nigeria, but wants corrupt politicians exit.

They don't hate Nigeria, rather they hate the greedy politicians of Nigeria.


I repeat they want something good for Nigeria.

Next time please correct yourself.

That's why you people go about calling Indigenous People Of Biafra a terrorist organization.
Something the Americans and the Europeans haven't tried before.
The US and the UK knows a terrorist when they see one.

Illiteracy dey worry you!!

Flying into another country's airspace without authorization is dangerous.


Some countries would just shoot anything down.

We were the one at fault.
Put sentiments aside and be realistic.

SOMETHING WEY BURKINA FASO SUPPOSE DON CALL BOYZ MAKE DEM BURN DOWN THE AROPLANE

That’s the sensible thing to do to save fave. Arresting and detaining the plane and crew was absolutely unnecessary in the first place. It was simply an act of pettiness and frustration over the failed Benin coup.

In accordance with international aviation rules, a plane in an emergency situation is expected to make an emergency landing at the nearest airport. The crew clearly communicated the emergency situation to the Airport Authority in Burkina Faso. So, why arrest and detain them in the first place?

Hello,,,, Aerospace is different from car parking garage , Pilot can make SOS call for emergency landing , it's now left for the country control tower command center to grant request, it is not mandatory ,but under international aerospace code ,control tower can grant permission under there own bilateral condition or whatever circumstances., but it's illegal to prove stubborn and land your aircraft without landing clearance...

😂😂😂😂
Traore don ginger Tinubu small

You know nothing about aviation industry and regulations

If it was North Korea airspace....sorry oooo

The toy soldier doesn't have a choice.

I salute the Burkina Faso military government for applying wisdom and not shattering our African unity. They're within their full rights to protect their country even if it involves shooting any strange aircraft hovering over their airspace without contacting their towers. I'm sure they're aware the Nigeria air force was working with the French, they just decided to let them go for the sake of African unity.

How can an aircraft veer so far off course that they went so deep into Burkina Faso to the point of almost reaching the Mali border? How! The soldiers should be thanking their stars to still be alive and the military should be grateful that their aircraft is still intact. France! Leave us out of your mess FFS!

That boy in Burkina Faso is going to be taught some lessons very soon. But for now let him be strutting around like a peacock with his pistol on his hip.

What's that first paragraph? Which sane country won't detain foreign military for landing in its airspace especially when the country just intervened in another country's (Benin) conflict.

There's some kind of argument that makes one a subject of ridicule. Your first paragraph is an example.

If you look at the map of the world and plot a straight line between Nigeria and Portugal, you will find out that the city Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso where the aircraft landed is quite far from that line. So, this statement will be hard to believe that the aircraft was on the way to Portugal

Lol...in a bid to justify your position, you just ended up contradicting yourself.

Where was it said that the NAF C130 just decided to leisurely land in BurknaFaso WITHOUT contacting the airport tower? Show me or just shut up!

Secondly go and read the link where you got that screen grab from! The plane was shot down by Pro-Russian rebels [/b]around the time when there was conflict in the Donbass region. They [b]mistakenly thought it was a Ukrainian plane!

The rebels were tried in absentia and convicted!

Stop being clever by half, no country just shoots down a plane just because their airspace is violated. There's a communication initiated BEFORE any adverse action is taken!
