I've said it before, and will still say it again. I feel more relaxed flying for over 15hrs from the US to Nigeria than the hour flight I have to take from lagos to owerri. A very useless contraption.

Sorry to say, our constitution supports corruption. There is one or two form of loopholes in our constitution, most of the act are been carried out by the same citizens that criticize the government. All parastatals in Nigeria are doing everything possible to avoid automating their system, they prefer the analogue system.
How does d Constitution of Nigeria support corruption? Can u pls quote those provisions in d Constitution that support corruption? How does that affect people who didn't do due diligence on a crashed helicopter?

It can only be saharareporters.

Others are busy asking silly questions: Who is bankrolling you? As if he expects a Nigerian politician or ex-politician to be honest about his/her finances.

I honestly don't see how d FFK/journalist issue is relevant here? Were u expecting d journalist in uyo to ask FFK about a helicopter crash that hadn't happened? Since u say Nigerian politician or ex-politician arent honest about their finances, should that stop d journalist from doing his job? Is that dishonesty not d more reason why a journalist should ask questions?

I hope this story is fake news.........

If it's true, the heaviest fines must be imposed + banning this company from putting drones in our airspace (not to talk of helicopters)

And the process of issuing this airworthy licence, must be thoroughly investigated (heads must roll + prison sentences, for those culpable)........

A good journalist should know how to phrase a question to let FFK dig his own grave. That's professional journalism. FFK was silly in his response. He should have said "Na God's grace" and the journalist wouldn't have a comeback.

Saharareporters is in a class of its own--Not perfect but still the best.

Thank God he knew enough to empty the fuel tank.
The headline would have been different
He didn’t. This heli type can’t dump fuel in flight.

I’ll never enter a flight operated by a local airline in Nigeria. It won’t happen. Even if I wanted to my feet won’t be able to cross the threshold.
