No sir, but you will agree with me that they know better. You think you just start a national carrier overnight?
They've not even settle the previous debts and are yet to pay the old staff.
Except they just want to score cheap political points, they need to take their time to do a thorough job so it won't fold up again.

Mind you, the old Nigerian Airways was not properly liquidated. Up till today we don't know how much they sold it.

What is the point of wasting value resources in establishing a national carrier in the 21st century if we are just going to sell it off?. Just encourage the massive private sector to establish their own airlines. I said it before the average Nigerian will not enter a plane in his or her life, we need the little money we have to be spent on 24 hours light, not vanity projects that will be misused by the corrupt board of directors appointed that will give themselves and their families free tickets.


Nigerians should not encourage this wasteful venture, which will only benefit the elite.


I am a PROUD NIGERIAN and I believe our NIGERIAN entrepreneurs have a better chance of having the best airlines in the world rather than a useless government airline. (Afterall a few years ago a Nigerian businessman was at the head of a private consortium that bought and ran the second largest airport in the UK, Gatwick Airport - would any Nigerian government allow that in Nigeria?)

I hope this national carrier won't be operated by an already existing airline, just as IMO state launched an airline operated by Dana fleets. I just hope they are not eyeing airpeace or merge Arik and Medview.

If they want to start a national carrier by December, it's almost mid year, where are the planes, the pilots, I haven't heard of any recruitment for Nigerian airways, or is it the eagle one rumor. what provisions have they put in place? People need jobs.
