In the course of seeking more information on this very weighty allegation against the first lady, Patience Jonathan, Olufamous.com observed that indeed "something was wrong" but nobody want to be quoted word-for-word, of fear of the unknown.
And since we can't afford to trade on 'mere rumours', Olufamous.com has to take the position of Mr. Victor Aguku on the matter. Below is how he captured it:
"Let Ade Atobatele (if he does exist) and Nigerians know that the Nigerian Air space can only be closed for 10 minutes only when an Aircraft conveying the President approaches an airport and 10 minutes after landing. A total accumulation of 20minutes by regulations.
"And let Ade and Nigerians also note that the Air space can never be closed for an aircraft conveying the first lady or any other individual in Nigeria. Let Nigerians know that regulations gives a code red preference to any aircraft on "May Day" (in danger) distress against any other aircraft even if its presidential. A presidential will be asked to divert towards a military airbase in case of a conflict in interest of landing.
"As we are aware, flight 0992 had called for MAY DAY 11mins before its ETA (estimated time of arrival). At 11mins, the aircraft had prepared for landing. No aircraft is allowed to prepare for landing in an airspace that is closed. 20mins to landing, an aircraft as large as the boeing MD-83 can only commence descend from its cruise altitude.
"Where then is the logic in Ade's story? Let Ade also take note that the traffic control unit at the airport has confirmed that the air space was actually closed for 15mins for the Dana Air flight 0992 to perform an emergency landing before the unfortunate incidence."
