Breaking News: No air crash in Lagos, says AIB

 
The Accident Investigation Bureau on Thursday denied reports that an unnamed aircraft from Gabon to Lagos crashed as it approached Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos. AIB spokesman, Tunji Oketunbi, told New Telegraph on the telephone that the news was triggered by a mock search and rescue exercise conducted by the police and aviation authorities at Oworonshoki area of Lagos.

The exercise was concentrated around the spot where an helicopter crashed in 2015, killing six persons. The mock exercise involved helicopters and teams of policemen and rescuers drawn from different agencies to sharpen their response to air disasters.
