Aviation Minister Festus Keyamo is calling out what he describes as a serious breach of aviation regulations after a private aircraft landed on, and later took off from, a roadway in Delta State without authorisation.
Keyamo has framed the incident as more than a rules violation. He considers it a national security concern, and he is vowing that sanctions will follow.
Details on the specific aircraft, the operator, or the timeline of events remain thin in official statements so far. But the minister's public response signals that the federal government is not treating this as a minor infraction.
Watch this space as the investigation unfolds and the question of who authorised, or failed to stop, that flight hangs in the air.
