This morning a deceased stowaway was discovered in the wheel well of a KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Boeing 777 (registered PH-BQM). The aircraft originated from Lagos, Nigeria. It’s currently unknown how and when the man was able to climb into the aircraft; an investigation has been launched. 

The extra passenger is believed to have died from hypothermia. Occasionally, stowaways are discovered in wheel wells of aircraft. “Sometimes they survive, but most of the time it goes wrong given the sharp drop in temperature. On longer flights, temperatures can go down to minus fifty degrees, impossible to survive,” a spokesperson of the Royal Dutch Marechaussee explained.

  2. It is so sad Africa is in shambles. I blame it on our leaders, for that matter politicians. It appears the black people have no brains in their heads. Considering the countless resources at our disposal, we cannot manage them to the benefits of our people. Very sad. We have all become slaves working day and night in the White Man’s country. People are desperate to leave Africa for greener pastures. We all need to change our mindsets please.
