Whilst in any well-run business, progression is by a mixture of ability, a touch of luck and a measure of knowing someone or being in the right place at the right time, it's sad that in Nigeria, as with too many African countries, knowing someone and being from the right family/tribe is far and away the biggest factor (as became very evident in another Bristow Nigeria in-house scandal). This does not bode well for the company interns of maintaining or improving standards in the years to come.
