Why travel to Uganda with 2 jets in the first place?. When is the 1st lady so important that we dedicate one private jet for her to cart her fat behind around.

Aloy_Emeka:

It's not toks, the plane lacks maintenance.

xterra2:

I was wondering same,the presidential jet is a 737 it is big enough to accommodate him and his wife, The best thing is for them jonathan and his wife to enter the same plane, Damn dont they see how yaradua and turai does or dont they watch cnn when other world leaders when they touch down the president and his wfe come out first and start waving to the people that are waiting for them at the tarmac, jonathan no get presidential swag
haha maybe so thats why $212 million was budget in this year budget to buy new presidential planes
But i dont think so,hardly do we hear of this our 737 developing fault,

Is that the presidential jet in the pic, a freaking ordinary Boeing 737 that is being wiped out

otawa:



Nigerian President do not need a jet. Flying first class on Nigeria Airways(which they killed) would have done the job.

Aloy_Emeka:

That will be an insult to Nigeria. If our pastors can afford a damn jet, then the country should be able to afford one.

otawa:

Nope. It is tax payers money.

I know many countries more RICH, VERY RICH compare to Nigeria, yet the President has no JET.

They are not ready to pay that for him.

They dont force you to be President but if you want to be you fly the country's commercial flight first-class.

Aloy_Emeka:

Name those countries please?

The air transport of the King and Prime Minister of Norway is mostly handled by commercial airliners
(such as Scandinavian Airlines) with the VIPs travelling as normal passengers.

Malaysia's Prime Minister and the Royal Family travel in a Boeing Business Jet operated by the Royal Malaysian Air Force with the serial number M53-01

The Chief Executive of Hong Kong travels on commercial aircraft operated by Cathay Pacific Airways and Dragonair, the de facto flag carriers of the territory.
He travels within the territory on helicopters operated by the Government Flying Service.

The Royal Danish Air Force operates three Challenger CL-604 for VIP transport, primarily that of the government and The Danish Royal Family. These airplanes are also used for environmental control and fishery control around Greenland and the North Sea.

And trust African Leaders:
most controversial air transports for a head of state was that of Zaire leader Mobutu Sese Seko, who leased a supersonic Concorde in the late 1980s and early 1990s

asscend:

The British Prime Minister is the chief minister. He is not the head of state thats why he does not have a dedicated jet.

Beaf:

The queen is head of state and doesn't have a private jet. We should really be thinking of cutting down on perks our leaders get. Have you heard how many million a senator takes home monthly? It is gross.
Yar Adua travelled to Saudi, because we have no worthy hospitals (the few we have look like unkempt mechanic workshops).

That will be an insult to Nigeria. If our pastors can afford a damn jet, then the country should be able to afford one.
