It is time to break out the champagne glasses, Nigeria has been re-elected to Catagory II of the ICAO Council, an exalted position it has occupied since 1962. Dr. O. B. Aliu is due for another gruelling triennium. Congrats to Nigeria. Now what next? I believe now is the time to start using all this influence to remove old aircraft from African skies, starting with Nigeria. Anything less recent than a B737-400 should be banned. Drastic huh? Well it is time to do something drastic. All the work of COSCAP BAG, AFRO-CAA, ICAO-TCB, AFCAC etc. will be in vain if our skies are not first safe, then percieved as safe. Other countries are doing it, why cant we?
