topman999, are you for real? Please explain how an aircraft holding at the holding point is an 'obstacle'? Because if you are right then just about every airport in the world has its approaches dangerously obstructed by obstacles on a daily basis.
I don't believe you've ever 'parked' a B742 anywhere near Lagos, except maybe in a Flight Sim or in your dreams.
If you had you'd know better.
I referred to just one incident...I said I'd seen many. Like the day the ATC radios failed for ten minutes. When they came back on air they'd completely lost the procedural picture (no radar ever worked there so nothing to fall back on). Instead of doing something logical, like directing aircraft into the hold and sorting them out there, the madman on the mike just issued everyone with whatever climb or descent clearance they requested.
We had two very near misses within 3 minutes of each other!
Nigeria is the pits and Lagos is the arse8ole of the aviation world. Don't try making pathetic excuses for them. I just thank Christ I got out alive.
