Kerosene might be the cause of recent Air crashes in the Naition- Otedola

Oil financier and Chairman of Forte Oil Plc, Femi Otedola,

has affirmed that the successive substitution of plane fuel with Kerosene oil may be in charge of the
late air accidents saw in the nation.

In a letter he

kept in touch with the Federal government, Otedola said this later

pattern by a few corrupt oil advertisers is dependable

for the increasing expense of lamp fuel.

As indicated by Otedola, on the grounds that House Hold Kerosene offers

some physical and synthetic properties with Jet A1 fuel,

false oil advertisers are offering HHK as Jet A1 to

clueless global and nearby aircraft at the

global business value which may be as high as N140/

liter..

"The offer of HHK as substitute for Jet A1 fuel by

some petroleum advertisers to carriers is a rising

pattern that should be checked." Otedola in his letter

said this new illegal pattern has prompted the inundation of

insatiable oil advertisers who are soon after benefit

making. He said a large portion of the advertisers have no

storerooms for legitimate treatment of petroleum

items which are exceptionally delicate and helpless

to defilement. "The best possible care and treatment of

ATK is vital in keeping up safe air ship

operations. One of the prerequisites that administrators

with high security gauges attempt to guarantee is that their

fuel is free from defilement. Sullied fuel

can bring about huge harm to the air ship and

motor. Harm can extend from fuel framework

consumption, obstructing of fuel filtration segments,

disappointment of air ship fuel framework instrumentation, and

notwithstanding ceasing the fuel supply to the motors amid

flight. In any case, with legitimate taking care of strategies set up,

fuel sullying equipped for making issues

the air ship can be disposed of. In view of the

previous, it is apropos that the unwholesome

exercises of these mushroom administrators be checked in

request to guarantee the most abnormal amounts of security and

worldwide best practice in the aeronautics business in

Nigeria," he said.
