It's really bizzling in Naija. We don't ever learn in this country we don't. The first air mishap of the year occurred on Saturday, when a Beechcraft 1900D plane with registration number 5NJAH left the Murtala Mohammed airport in Lagos for the Bebi airstrip in Obudu. It was said to have lost contact with the Port Harcourt airport causing panic in and around the state. Gist began to fly alleging that the Governor of Cross River State was in the ill fated flight, that the plane was returning to Obudu to convey the Governor back to Calabar,
The plane which took off at about 7:35am was supposed to have landed by 8:45am. However, the wreckage of the plane was later alleged to have been found in Ngagu a remote village in Yala Local Government Area of Cross River State, barely 24hrs after take off, reports later by the aviation authorities said the report was false . But the good news is that the Governor was not in the ill fated flight.
What exactly the problem with our aviation industry? Can't we have a year without any sort of air mishap? We hear their ramblings every day in news, telling us that there is a reform in the industry, What do these reforms really set out to achieve? The industry or their pockets? I'm really sick and tired of all this nonsense, our roads are nothing to write home about, our railway system is absolute zero. How do one move around? God help us all!
The cause of the crash has not been made public, i hope they tell us something reasonable this time.
