If Nigeria Air has been registered as a business then his action can be challenged in the courts as cybersquatting and he will lose the domain names.


"Cybersquatting, the practice of buying up a domain in order to profit from a trademarked name, is prohibited under the 1999 Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act as well as a set of international guidelines called the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy. (Disputes are usually mediated by the National Arbitration Forum or the U.N.'s World Intellectual Property Organization.) Both systems were created to protect companies, celebrities, and even Joe Schmoes from having their names exploited online for commercial purposes. To sue someone for cybersquatting, you have to show that they acted in "bad faith," meaning they deliberately registered a certain domain in order to profit off your name"

The guy just wasted money.

The only valid domain there is NigeriaAir.com and its owned by a Korean.... Jim Lee.

Nigeria's national carrier would carry either a . com or . gov

You are ignorant and you need to read or shut up when the subject matter is something you don't understand.
That guy did not register NA.com
Always trying to reap where you did not sow is the reason your country is fcked up.

They don't need to. Someone else would pay better for the name due to the traffic and internet visibility it will hold in the future. If i were him, I'd hold the name for at least another 3 years before putting it up for sale.

Nigeriaair is a private company with the government owning a 5 percent stake. It will be managed as such.
Re: Nigeria Air: Man Buys The Domain Names & Put It Up At ₦24 Million Each by Nobody: 2:05pm On Jul 21, 2018
Nigeria air is a company that does international flight,so it will be useless to use .ng and com.ng,if it was a local airline then .ng and com.ng will be good

a domain that ends with .com will be a perfect fit for Nigeria air

My man just lost his money

the winner will be nigeria-air.com or something relating to it but must end in .com

another opinion,do you think nigeria govt hasnt done their research about the domain name before using the name name nigeria air?

another possiblity,the guy might make money if they decide to buy all domain name relating to nigeria air but i doubt he will make 40 million highest he will make is 4 million.

anyway, in 6 months we will know if he made cash or not.
