The Boeing 737 aircraft, with registration number 5N-BPB, was forced to return to the Lagos airport at about 9:17am and landed safety with all 99 persons on board.

Acting Director General of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), Engr. Benedict Adeyileka, said the pilot made the air return as a precautionary measure to avert air disaster.
