550 Pilgrims escape death as Max Airline engine damages
According to an authoritative source at the airport who pleaded anonymity, the incident occurred at about 5.00am on Saturday.
The source told newsmen that the passengers were rushed out of the plane after it halted off the runway. “The fire that would have followed would have spread to all parts of the airport because we don’t have fire fighting vehicles in this airport,” he said. Hajiya Hassana Isah, Public Relations Officer of the state Pilgrims Welfare Board, confirmed the incident to journalists but did not give details.
