Heard today from contact in Nigeria that airport closed for 2 hours because of transit of President's wife. Plane held for some time. Anyone else heard this and if true could commercial/diplomatic pressures have resulted in running out of fuel? How else can you reasonably explain a double engine failure like this. Hardly a 777 after a 10 hour flight across Russia!
