Arik Air Flight Delayed as Cleaning Crew Refuse to Work after Ebola Scare
An Arik Air flight was delayed for several hours yesterday, following the Ebola scare that occurred when a man traveling from Lagos to New York died on one of the airline’s aircrafts.
According to Sahara Reporters,
the cleaning company that was hired to work on the aircraft “refused to
go near the aircraft citing fears that the aircraft might be harboring
Ebola virus.”
Officials reportedly had to find another
cleaning company at the last minute to ensure that the flight left New
York for its Lagos destination.
