I flew from London to Lagos many years ago. There was brief stop over in Kano before the pilot walkedback u o the cockppit,through the plane, a big dutch man. He got s resounding round of applause. Getting to me and seeing a white face he stopped for a chat. 'You must be very popular ' I said. ' Oh no, he said 'theyre just delighted to see a white man flying he plane'
