 —Helicopter 'picked up stroke victim'<br />
<br />
A man who was picked up by a helicopter in the middle of a huge traffic jam in Nigeria Benin Orie road had suffered a stroke, the helicopter company has told the BBC.<br />
<br />
The video from Sunday spread widely on social media, with many speculating it showed a billionaire who had called the helicopter to escape the four-hour long traffic jam.<br />
<br />
The video provoked condemnation about the behaviour of Nigeria's super rich.<br />
<br />
But the helicopter operator says it is normal to respond to emergency calls.<br />
<br />
The luxury brand Julian's Luxury appears to have been one of the first to spread the idea that the video showed a billionaire being rescued from a traffic jam.<br />
<br />
"Real Luxury Lifestyle... the Power of Money... picking up a VIP who is stuck in traffic on the Lagos Benin Expressway," it said.<br />
<br />
Another rumour that spread was that the helicopter was rescuing the girlfriend of a billionaire.<br />
<br />
This theory was put forward by actor Deyemi Okanlawon who went on to condemn the act as "lawlessness".<br />
<br />
Three days later, on Wednesday, Nigeria's Civil Aviation authority said that it had launched an investigation into the incident.<br />
<br />
Femi Adeniji from Tropical Arctic Logistics Ltd told the BBC that he didn't understand why the video had caused such a fuss.<br />
<br />
He said it was normal for their company to respond to emergency situations, as there is no such public emergency service available - and they had done so six times in the last two months.<br />
<br />
He said that there was no truth in the speculation that the helicopter was called by a billionaire who wanted to escape the huge traffic jam.<br />
<br />
Instead he said that the man had been suffering from high blood pressure and his driver had panicked.<br />
<br />
A doctor who was also struck in the traffic was helping the man and the helicopter was called.<br />
<br />
It landed on Ore road which connects the south west to the southern part of Nigeria.<br />
