Residents of Benin City, the Edo
State capital, were panic-stricken on Saturday [Aug 18] when an Arik Airline
aircraft carrying over 50 passengers and which hovered for about 15 minutes in
the airspace failed to land at its Benin Airport destination.
The incident, which occurred at
about 7.30 a.m., sent shivers down the spines of residents as some people
living around the airport hurriedly left their homes for fear that the aircraft
might crash land.
