Nigeria Government sues Turkish Airlines

A three count charge was filed against the airline and two of its principal officers, Liker Ayci and Rasak Shobowale. The persistent refusal of the airline to respond to the request by the Consumer Protection Council led to the prosecution.
The accused persons were arraigned on the number of passengers aboard the TK 623 flight from Istanbul on the 25th and 31st December, 2015 and 9th January, 2016 of which there was untimely delivery of baggage's. And this is an offence punishable by the CPC ACT.

Beautiful Mauritius

Image
Something for all: Mauritius has plenty of family fun in the day and night T hink  Mauritius  and you’ll likely think of pristine white beaches, turquoise seas and exclusive, luxury resorts full of celebrities and the super-rich. As with all clichés, it’s partly true but the reality is far more interesting – and much more accessible. You’ll probably also think it’s tropically, uncomfortably hot, being only 20 degrees south of the Equator in the Indian Ocean. The Mauritian summer, between October and April, can be hot, humid and wet. It is still largely glorious. But the “winter” is pretty much perfect for Britons: an average temperature in the low to mid-20s, not much rain and far lower humidity. And the mosquitoes have a rest too, making life far more comfortable. You’ll not be short of things to do. Those beaches – 160km of them – are amazing, especially in the more glamorous east of the island, but Mauritius’s diverse colonial history, volcani...
