 Dangote Refinery To Supply 60 Million Litres Of Petrol Weekly To IPMAN To Boost Crude Imports The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has reached an agreement to supply 60 million litres of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) to the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) on a weekly basis, which translates to 240 million litres per month. This comes as the $20bn Lekki-based refinery seeks to raise billions of dollars to import crude oil and increase production to reach its full capacity of 650,000 barrels per day. IPMAN National Publicity Secretary, Chinedu Ukadike, confirmed that the association is finalizing discussions with Dangote and expects to start lifting PMS from the refinery before the end of November.

A WOMAN WITH NO PILOT TRAINING SUCCESSFULLY LANDED AN AIRPLANE AFTER HER PILOT HUSBAND SUFFERED A FATAL MID-FLIGHT HEART ATTACK. (PHOTO).


 A woman with no pilot training successfully landed an airplane after her pilot husband suffered a fatal mid-flight heart attack.


78-year-old Eliot Alper and his wife, 69-year-old Yvonne Kinane-Wells, flew out of Henderson Executive Airport on October 4th. Their destination was Monterey Regional Airport in Monterey, California.  Unfortunately they would suffer an unexpected and tragic detour.


At some point during the flight Eliot suffered a heart attack and became incapacitated. Yvonne was forced to take over the controls of the twin-engine Beechcraft King Air 90. Yvonne was able to contact air-traffic control and successfully land the airplane with their assistance. In the released audio you can hear Yvonne being instructed on how to change course and altitude in order to land at Meadows Field in Bakesfield, CA.


When Yvonne successfully touched down at 1:40 p.m. she was chased down the runway by EMS who rushed Eliot to a nearby hospital. Sadly Eliot Alper would pass away later that day.


First responders and airport personal say that Yvonne being able to maintain her composure and successfully land the plane while her husband suffered a medical emergency is unprecedented and incredible.


Our thoughts are with all of Eliot's loved ones. Also, great job Yvonne. That had to be incredibly stressful and hard to do.
