The Wrong Survivor
The BlueHawk 302 Story
What happens when the man who walks away wasn’t supposed to survive?
When BlueHawk Flight 302 crashes minutes after takeoff from Lagos, the nation reels. Among the dead are Major Mshelia—a dutiful officer—and the child of a powerful general. But one man survives, and he was never meant to be on board.
The Wrong Survivor is a gripping socio-political thriller that probes the ironies of survival, the weight of guilt, and the devastating ripple effects of systemic failure. As media narratives spiral and government agencies scramble to manage the fallout, a journalist begins to question the official version of events—and the identity of the lone survivor.
This is not just a story about aviation disaster. It’s about corruption, complicity, and the stories we tell to silence the truth.
The Wrong Survivor is as haunting as it is humane.
Chiedu Ndubisi is a Nigerian author, economist, and policy analyst whose fiction confronts the silences around power, loss, and accountability.

He is the Managing Director/CEO of Prohouse and Systems Limited and founder of GritRoot Media Concept.

“Stunning and thought-provoking. Ndubisi dares to ask: what if survival itself is the beginning of a deeper tragedy?”
— *Ngozi Nwachukwu, author of Flight Risk
“This is fiction that bleeds reality. With controlled prose and restrained emotion, The Wrong Survivor delivers a punch you won’t forget.”
— *Tunde Akinwale, Editor, The Civic Review
“Every page is an indictment, a lament, and a call to remember. Easily one of the best Nigerian novels of the year.”
