Associated Airlines’ aircraft technician who was among the five survivors of the October 3 crash that left 15 people dead in Lagos has passed on. He died at the Gbagada General Hospital, Lagos, where he had been receiving treatment.

The development brought to 16 the number of dead victims of the ill-fated plane which crashed while conveying the remains of former governor of Ondo State, Olusegun Agagu, from Lagos to Akure.
Sources at the hospital said the technician, Mr. Samson Fatoye, died at about 7pm on Wednesday. Fatoye, who suffered severe burns from the crash, had been treated in many hospitals before he was finally taken to the Gbagada hospital.
The sources said Fatoye died few hours after immigration officials from Abuja arrived in the hospital with electronic data capturing machine to prepare passport for the survivors to travel overseas for further treatment.
A Punch correspondent however learnt that the remaining four survivors, including the two cabin crew members, were captured, using the machine.
The remaining survivors, it was learnt, might be flown to overseas any time soon.
However, there were allegations that the survivors had been neglected by both the government and the management of the airline.
There had been reports that one of the surviving flight attendants, Mrs. Quinneth Owolabi, whose 10 toes and five fingers were amputated days ago, had been in severe pains before and after the surgery.
The National Cabin Crew Association had reportedly appealed to the Federal Government to fly her abroad for treatment to avoid the amputation.
Serving and retired cabin crew executives had expressed anger over government’s refusal to come to the aid of the victim despite the appeal made by NACCA and the family.
Spokesperson for the group, Mrs. Blessing Efe, had reportedly said that Owolabi would have been saved the trauma of amputation had government heeded her cries.
Efe said, “It is unfortunate that no help came when Quinneth needed it most. Her toes and fingers were amputated three days ago (four days today). Imagine the trauma she is going through at the moment.
“We want government to always support people who survive air crashes because the accident is not their making.
“We are trying now to sensitise the public and government on the need to assist those who survive air crashes. It is not easy to survive air an accident.”
The second surviving cabin crew member, Miss Toyin Samson, was said to be in a stable condition at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja, where she has been on admission

Since october 3, just bringing the electronic machine to capture them to prepare their passports.

I understand, feyi agagu must have had his own passport facilitating quick movement to oversea for treatment. If not so, they would have brought the machine before now just because of the son or if any of the cabal has a victim among them.

Nigerian democracy is for the cabal!

Every Nigerian should have an official passport but corruption has made the cost so high and the process so tedious that the ordinary man cannot get it.

Its hard to believe that an aircraft tech didn't have a passport.

Assuming its true,how many hours does it take to transport the machine from Ikoyi or Festac to gbagada? We know this won't be the case if it were a "big man "

The poor is always the sacrificial lamb.

@ifyalways

the "bigman" in this situation may already have a passport complete with visa to US and UK for the next 3 years so flying him out will be easy. Mind you this "bigman" is as a result of corruption by the political class.
