So my plan to acquire private helicopter is also thwarted. Thats so uncool.

Dee60: The President should lead by example. The 10 or so luxury jets in the presidential fleet should be turned over to a national carrier and the president should fly first class and business class like the British Prime Minister will do. As a nation, we are as poor as bangladesh but our leaders want to live like American presidents. It wont work!

All aircrafts in the presidential fleet are owned solely by the Nigerian Air Force. They are going nowhere.

[size=16pt]Don't you get it

Stella wants to CHOP!! Now that she doesn't have access to subsidy money, she needs to get creative:

Ban importation of private jets and issue waivers to those who are ready to part with substantial amounts of moolah!

How else can you explain banning import of jets because you want to come up with a new policy and you say you don't know how long it will take

Remember, this woman was one of GEJ's chief fund raisers in the last election.[/size]

P.s. before tribalists come and start defending "their own", the Yoruba, Hausa, Ijaw, Efik, Fulani, Kanuri etc politicians are just as corrupt as the Igbo ones.

The devil is a big Liar, we Nairalanders MUST get our own. Are they banning it so that others will not buy. Anyways, with my combine 3D,4D and 5D, I have no problem.

Ile-Ife:
Cronyism, Maoism, 'Exploiting class' exploiting each other. 'Bad belleism'

Are they going to ban importation of luxury cars next?

Did they tell you it is a ban, they only suspended it pending the outcome of new regulations.

AH WHY NOW? NO PROBLEM, SINCE MINE IS ALMOST IN NIGERIA, I WILL DIVERT IT TO BENIN AND FROM THERE OPERATE IT. NO PROBLEM FG.

Holy Ghost Fire!? Holy Ghost Fire!!! AMEN.

**Speaking in tongues**

Santara bon dere su, mahaduhasa. mondere tu buhaharu, manwoputukadure.

Thank you lord. Amen.

what u guys problem with pastors buying private jet? una want make them trek

Burger01: Damn!!! Some pastors would be disappointed... what would happen to the plane Pst Okojie and Pst Kriss Oyak ordered for....

They should ban stealing of government funds. If you are a productive businessman, paying taxes and employing people, why should you not be able to buy a private jet? They should instead strengthen seizure and forfeiture laws to catch the politicians and crooks. When you cannot explain the source of the wealth you forfeit it to government.

achi4u: that one dey use fuel?

u no knw? na human blood na

Ds is bad, cos am planning to buy 1 nxt week ;-(

Billyonaire: So my plan to acquire private helicopter is also thwarted. Thats so uncool.

You are so predictable. I was just about to type 'where is Billionaire to tell us how this has disrupted his plans for the year'.

Why is common sense not common? Nigeria is becoming the largest hub for private jets in africa and they want to spoil that trend which might someday promp boeing to build one of their assembly plants here thereby creating jobs and revenue for the nation. If something must be done it should be the FAA taxing this jets and using the money to maintain our airports.

Many things need to be banned too...like public office holders sending their kids to school abroad or using any medical facility outside the country...let the chicken come home to roost...let's fix this country and stop selfishly sorting out one another

This is an evidence that Jonathan knows not what to do except to loot oil money. Why not place a duty of 50% and a yearly tax of 25%. That will raise more money to maintain our failing and sick airports.

Abeg my own dey road dey com ooooooooooo,so hw we go do am oga GJ.cos I most use my own dis mth oooooooooooooo

A nation like nigeria --- I am sooo tired of the massive confusion .....so confused that's each time I sit to view the tv set if I see the new hour I run away

No mind,i fit buy ma own follow no man's land enta compound gbam!!! If u nid 1, abeg conzult me. I no hard.

No mind,i fit buy ma own follow no man's land enta compound gbam!!! If u nid 1, abeg conzult me. I no hard. Loll!!!!!

HNosegbe: While they're at it, they should slam a 25% tax on all private jets ordered. A good way to raise money.

Should be 100% tax and the registration and other fees should be very high...not only for private jets but all luxury items for private use...whether it be yatch, cars or alcohol.

achi4u: that one dey use fuel?

E deh use blood.

This development will greatly affect our evangelism, how can those of us that have not acquired one be able to do "God's work"? Touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm by reducing the avenue to spend the surplus takings.

No wonder, dis custom & clearing agents have refused to deliver my Gulfstream to my private hanger, dey shld have @ least told me, haba! Wud just have spoken to d presidency or Stella directly... Well, no wahala, Leke, get in touch wit Stella, tell her I need to speak to her ASAP. John Travolta has been disturbing me for my flying lessons. *mschew*

didadavid: Something they shoulda done before now, after all our pastors have used the sweat of my fellow Nigerian citizens to acquire fleets of air planes. Well I wouldn't blame them, I'd blame my hungry naija people for buying planes for them, then drink garry morning, noon and evening. How fulfilled are pastors for their followers dont think.

FOOL!

the importation of private jets was SUSPENDED not banned. There's a difference between both words.

Is this the solution? So what if individuals go to buy Private Jets outside the country, and then fly it in? That of course cannot be defined as importation. Yet, the country will not receive import duties.

This is rubbish, if at all it is true.

My company can bring it in through Seme Border.. We can also help you put plate number as well..[color=#990000][/color] [i][/i] abeg werin be ur email my broda, post asap cos i go like use ur service.

What is the point when most of these private jets are actually registered abroad?

Also, Mr. Sam Adurogboye, Spokesman for the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) had told the our correspondent that private jet ownership is on the increase even as most private jet owners prefer to register their aircraft abroad because they pay less insurance premiums abroad, while the aircraft had second hand values and they could easily get buyers if they decide to sell the aircraft.

very good development, at least it would curb the incessant accidents

talktimi: the importation of private jets was SUSPENDED not banned. There's a difference between both words.

'Suspended indefinitely' 'ban', what's the difference? A typical GEJ era political office holder, trying to squeeze money out of people that can afford private jet. Dishonourable Farouk style mafia shake down, Bala Mohammed type shake down. The modus Operandi sounds familiar. Only God knows how many percent madame Stella (Oni idi Araba) is asking for.
