ReplyDeleteNaija nawa #bright bravo#
ReplyDeleteWhy mention the name of the pilot and leave out the names of the two Nigerian passengers and the name of the Israeli?
ReplyDeleteTypical, fry the small fish and let the big fish continue swimming.
Captain Tunde is a pilot that was/is with ****airline. If he is still in **** airline it would mean that Its either the Chairman and the MD of ****airline or one of their friends in Government. Money laundering things.
If he is no longer with ****airline then it should be one of the big boys in Government and a certain banker/money cleaner that own one of these private jets.
just guessing
Bad market
