As if things weren't already bad enough for most of the aviation people in Nigeria, SASless's posting on Rotorheads can't exactly be cheery Christmas reading for Bristow staff.
However, it's good to know that aviation in Nigeria is now in safe hands if you read the postings by Tobias Wilcock on the Africation Aviation Forum. There you'll see that the Presidential advisor on aviation was apparently an accounts clerk at Zaria before running the ground base for the Nigerian Police Force, the DG of NAMA 'Captain' Iyayi is a Chemistry graduate and allegedly has no pofessional pilot licence (maybe he was captain on a bulk chermicals tanker
), and the Head of the NCAA Accident Investigation branch is actually an aerodrome engineer who had to lave Zaria due to incompetence.
Will anything ever change? Probably not
