What's new in West Africa

As a continuation of 212 mans comment on the Hind destroying itself at Osubi, I arrived the day after and all there was left was a pool of oil and various spare parts scattered around the airfield.A large amount of debris had gone over the terminal and landed in a large carpark on the other side.When the army and police arrived shortly thereafter the first thing they did was to start beating up people in the carpark!Why? Who knows.They were there and so must have been involved! The social chaos theory was perfected in Nigeria.Hear the 155's are grounded for a while until the threats recede??
I do miss the place though.
