The Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB) has disclosed that the plane crash involving Flints Aero, transporting Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu from Abuja to Ibadan, Oyo State, last month, violated non-commercial flight permit regulations.
This information was revealed in a preliminary report by the bureau’s spokesperson, Tunji Oketunbi.
According to the report, Flint Aero possessed a permit for noncommercial flights, prohibiting the carriage of passengers, cargo, or mail for hire or reward.
The NSIB, in addition to other recommendations, urged the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency to strictly enforce airport operational hours as published in relevant aeronautical information publications and refrain from permitting extensions beyond airport limitations.
The report, released on Monday, emerged about one month after the incident, following NSIB’s commitment to investigating the matter.
Importantly, there were no fatalities in the incident.
