Another source at the scene of the incident said the Middle East Airline and others had been carrying out commercial operations under the disguise of evacuation flights.

There was uproar at the Muritala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos, on Wednesday after two airplanes collided at the international wing of the airport.


An Airbus A330-243 owned by Middle East Airlines with registration number OD-MEA, ran into a Boeing 777 airplane with registration number TC-LJC operated by Turkish Airlines.


Sources at the airport said the Turkish cargo flight was parked at the international airport apron when the Middle East airbus ran into it.

“The Turkish cargo flight was parked at the tarmac when the MEA airbus ran into it l, ripping off part of the empennage of the aircraft.

“The MEA flight was taxiing when it happened,” the source said.

The MEA airbus, which had been boarding passengers since 12:00pm, had to disembark every passenger on board.

Another source at the scene of the incident said the Middle East Airline and others had been carrying out commercial operations under the disguise of evacuation flights.

"These people have been running commercial flights under the disguise of evacuation. They come to this country at least three times a week.

"The MEA and even Turkish Airlines and others have been carrying out commercial operations," the source added.

This is one of the reasons why most African countries populace have so much distrust in their leaders or ruling class, on one end there’s ban on international flights, while on the other end international flights disguised as evacuation flight is happening at exorbitant rates.
.
You wonder why lots of Africans think corona virus and daily figures rolled out is a gimmick to siphon funds?
.
Please open up the international wing officially and atleast put some majors used for passengers on the “evacuation” or emergency flights

This one go shock Buhari die.


Hope the drivers and conductors made it out alive?

wahala no too much for this country so�����

Interesting, hope they will offer the repair job to our panel beater to do.
