Reports reaching us revealed that a British Airways flight
at the Abuja International Airport was this morning cancelled due to
engine failure, just few minutes before take off.
We gathered that the British Airways 8:30 flight to London was
preparing to take off when the right engine of the plane just stopped
working. They heard a noise and then smoke. The plane had to be towed
back to the tarmac. |

The engineers tried to fix the engine of the plane for a while, with the pilot making an announcement.
After about 40 minutes trying to fix the engine, British Airways
made an announcement about the cancellation of the flight for safety
reasons.
All passengers where then asked to leave the plane
British Airways is yet to issue a public statement about what happened.
