FAAN Responds As Plane Causes Congestion On Lagos Road

Motorists and witnesses speculated that the plane crashed-landed on Tuesday evening.

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has responded to a plane which was seen on a road in Lagos state, thus causing congestion.

Motorists and witnesses speculated that the plane crashed-landed on Tuesday evening.

The plane’s missing wings caused a traffic jam on the Ikeja-Agege highway.FAAN told Nigerians to disregard the news in a brief statement posted on its social media accounts.

“The aircraft was sold by the owner to a buyer, who was taking it to its final destination”, it reads.

An aviation analyst, Daniel Dikio had also tweeted his observation of the viral video.

“It is an Airbus A319, hasn’t flown domestically in years. I can see traces of a green logo, it likely belonged to First Nation Airways in its time.

“The wings are separated cleanly, this wouldn’t happen in a crash. The separation is a sign of dismantling.

“There is no damage to the fuselage, almost impossible given the plausible circumstances”, Dikio acclaimed.
