- Emiliano Sala's pilot David Ibbotson is reported not to be qualified to fly at night

- Ibbotson flew the plane Emiliano Sala boarded in January which ended the life of the player

It has been claimed that David Ibbotson who was the pilot that flew the Emiliano Sala's crashed plane was color blind and not qualified to fly at night.

Emiliano Sala was on board traveling in January to meet Cardiff City players from Nantes before the plane he was boarding crashed into the English channel.

And according to the latest report by BBC Wales, the pilot did not hold a "night rating" on his UK private pilot's licence and he was restricted to flying in daytime hours only.

"Anything that's on the UK licence applies to the US licence as well, so he couldn't do anything more than the UK licence allows.

"Flying outside the restrictions of your licence is illegal and that's likely to affect the insurance cover for the flight,'' the source explained.

David Ibbotson's licence will now be investigated along with the legality of the flight as it is claimed that he had only private licence and was battling £18,000 debts.

The plane disappeared off radar north of Guernsey in the Channel Islands at 20:16 on January 21.

Sala's body was recovered from the wreckage of the plane in early February, but Mr Ibbotson's body has not been found.

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Emiliano Sala's former side Nantes are demanding Cardiff City pay the sum of £15 million transfer fee for their former striker.

The plot now thickens in the recent tragedy that witnessed the Piper Malibu carrying the striker and pilot David Ibbotson, disappeared off radar.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
