        Whistle blower:  The case of Air Nigeria’s John Nnorom

                One day after the Dana Air crash of June 3, John Nnorom, a former executive of Air Nigeria disclosed to public what might really lead to this air crash tragedy.
                 The whistle blower blamed the chairman of the organization named  Jimoh Ibrahim of not taking serious the matter of maintenance  of planes of the company rather used the fund for his personal use.  John Nnorom  said a huge amount of money that is N35 billion which was taken as loan to finance  Air Nigeria is also took another  routine and invested in NICON Investment Ldt, mostly known as Wonder Bank. Engineers of same company were also forced to allow planes that were not supposed to fly and went on for strike because of this inhuman behavior by their manager.
                 But Air Nigeria denied what was said by the whistle-blower. They also said Nnorom did not know anything about maintenance of aircraft before his dismissal from the company. Air Nigeria called on the public at large to disregard the sabotage of the company. The company is trying not to compromise their integrity and keep up the good reputation they used to have because such horrible catastrophe never happens to them, no accident and no emergency landing.

        Two different stories are mentioned above, which one true?

                 If the whistle blower allegations are real, Government agencies would thoroughly investigate the airline. If it happens to be wrong, the question would be for what reason or gain would he do such a thing? But if he is guilty for his action charges would be against him. However being guilty does not mean that the person is lying because criminals may state the truth and honest people can lie.
                 Currently the investigation is still on process and I will keep on updating if there is any other vital information.

  3. All planes that have been in operation for more than 10 years should be grounded(if possible after 5 years). Constant training of highly skilled pilots is also very important.
