Chinedu Eze and Hammed Shittu in Ilorin
An aircraft in the fleet of Air Peace, which had a deflated tyre shortly after landing at the Ilorin International Airport on Friday has been evacuated
The development forced airline operators to cancel their operations on Friday and yesterday because no plane could land nor take-off from the runway of the airport until the burst tyre was replaced.
Reprieve, however, came the way of the airline operators and passengers yesterday when the Air Peace plane was evacuated from the runway of the airport.
THISDAY checks revealed that the plane was moved to the hanger of the Nigerian Air Force in the airport for further maintenance services.
