The sister to the American pilot, Captain Joseph Wyatt, who flew the ill-fated Bristow Helicopter that crashed into Lagos lagoon, Samantha Wyatt, yesterday took to the social media to express the pains her family was going through over his death.
Captain Wyatt, alongside the First Officer, Peter Bello and four other passengers died in the crash that occurred Wednesday afternoon.
His sister, who had taken to Twitter few hours after the crash for a manhunt for him, at about 4:29pm, said: “We are heartbroken. I have never known such grief. Thank you to all who helped.”
Samantha, a medical, specialist in Florida, United States, on Tuesday tweeted at several handles, including local, international media houses and famous blogs in Nigeria as well as the United States (U.S.) Mission in Nigeria demanding information on her brother’s whereabouts.
The initial information was that the American was among the survivors, a situation that prompted his worried sister to get telephone numbers of some hospitals to make enquiries.
