Typical narrow minded African response, already looking to pass the buck. The more relevant question should be "where were the people in charge when the fire was spreading throughout the entir ebuilding"

I agree Obi, where was the emergency team, supposing it was a plane does it mean no one would have been saved? Now those who were thinking JKIA is close to perfect are seeing the flaws.

My take:

- this is Pattni revenging
- where are those guys who were saying JKIA is world class? A major airport without fire control?
- soon the fire brigades will run out of water...just watch!

JKIA has the best fire cover in the region. Seems the saboteur did a very good job.

It does not matter who is doing what, or the cause at this point, most important thing is we should be prepared to deal with the worst. Someone at that Airport takes home some big bucks, awards contracts to their cronies to supply garbage, must have stolen everything including the fire suppressors, extinguishers and even the fire engine, and ignores all roles he is paid to perform. Coz fire getting to that magnitude at such a high security level facility at peak just doesn't make sense.

I don't think we are ready, this more than anything makes me really doubt our organisational capacity as a race/people. I bet nobody at KAA gets fired. And I am not even going into the "do the honourable thing and resign" as would be expected everywhere else in the world.

An international airport next to a military air base going up in flames... military guys should have put off that fire in an instance irrespective of the KAA's capacity... that airport should have been one of the military's most guarded assets... against fire or whatever!!!
When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into my heart.

RAO is asleep, crying about "stolen victories".

Meanwhile, Pattni makes UK wake up early after a good night of Jamesons to rush to see the airport...

JFK, blown away, what else do I have to say?
We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it
