In something that might be the script for a well-done Hollywood movie, a plane crash happened and no one died!

A helicopter, with 13 passengers on board, en route Lagos from Port Harcourt landed in the Atlantic ocean.

It didn’t land in the large body of water by accident. It was a deliberate decision to make the controlled emergency landing by Nigeria’s first female helicopter Captain, Abimbola Jaiyeola. 

A friend of the pilot shared this in a Facebook post:

<!– // (function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = “//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3”; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, ‘script’, ‘facebook-jssdk’)); // ]]>

Let’s celebrate and thank God for our Female Capt Abimbola Jayeola ,who was the Capt on the Bristow Chopper that ditched…

Her quick thinking saved the lives of all on board.

Where are those who think women can do a good a job as their male counterparts, eh?
