Khalid revealed that there was a delay in his flight from Dubai, which forced him to miss the connecting flight to Nairobi, saving his life.

“It was from Dubai to Addis Ababa and then from Addis Ababa to Nairobi but because of the delay from Dubai I missed the first flight. So when I reached Addis Ababa they told me to take second flight which I said was fine,” he said.

He added that it whilst waiting for the second flight to Nairobi, they were told, without explanation, that their flight would be delayed.

It was later that they saw the news that the first plane had crashed with everyone on board dead.
