Imagine you take an interstate flight as you go home for Christmas and your plane lands safely. 

You thank the Almighty for making it possible.

Then you get ready to disembark.

Only to be told that the passenger stairway has malfunctioned and you won’t be able to leave immediately.

What would you do?

Well these Nigerians who chartered a plane definitely had a really practical solution. They used a ladder!

Aero Contractors had a problem with their stairway and apparently didn’t have a spare.

Passengers who arrived the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa International Airport were forced to leave the aircraft via a makeshift ladder.

Now other countries are making fun of the “giant of Africa” for this.

Nigerians are asking, “Where is the Minister of Aviation?”

This is disappointing!
