A Nigerian pilot who displayed exceptional ability and knowledge despite being forced to stay on the air for two hours due to a storm has received admiration from well-known ex beauty queen and reality TV star Queen Mercy Atang.
The former Big Brother Naija housemate posted a video online detailing her terrifying travel from Lagos to Abuja.
She claimed that there had been a severe storm when they arrived in Abuja, forcing their plane to remain in the air for two hours before landing or waiting for the storm to pass.
Their pilot, Rasheed Lawal, received praise from Queen for his competence and judgment in bringing the ship safely back to the land.
She posted a video of the pilot who became an overnight sensation being thanked and snapped by other passengers for ensuring their safety.
When sharing the article, Queen wrote:
