Akwa Ibom Airline management has attributed the cause of the delay of its 7 am flight on Thursday to Abuja to a suspicious technical issue with the nose gear of the aircraft billed to operate the flight.

In a statement issued by the General Manager of marketing and communication of the airline, Mrs Aniekan Essienette, said “While the aircraft was pushing back from the gate, under the supervision of the monitoring engineer, he noticed an issue with on our 7 am flight from Lagos to Abuja, he noticed an issue with the nose gear.

“The engineer, who wore a headset to communicate with the pilots, promptly drew the attention of the Pilot in charge to his observation. The decision was made to inspect the nose, and passengers had to be disembarked.

“This is a routine practice in the industry. The supervising engineers remain vigilant in inspecting an aircraft until it departs.
