I feel very sorry for the families of the people who have died in this crash. Families have been thrown into disarray by this mess. My condolences to them all and I pray that God will be their comforter in this time of need for them all.
But when we look at facts it comes as little surprise to me that this tragedy has happened. This plane is 21 YEARS OLD. Second hand airplane that was previously used in ALASKA in the 1980s. Nigeria is rich enough to buy BRAND NEW passenger planes to ensure maximum safety for its people but NO we continue to drink the kool aid of the west and allow them to dictate to us what planes we can buy and what planes we can't buy. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Time for a overhaul of the aviation industry. New TOUGH rules must be put in place. If you cannot provide BRAND NEW planes then do not bother getting into the aviation industry in Nigeria. We cannot continue to die like chickens in this country.
