Nigerian Jet For Malawian President by Ade0001(m): 7:46am On Jul 16, 2013 |
When Nigeria dispatched a jet from its Presidential Air Fleet late last month to fetch Malawi’s President, Joyce Banda, to Abuja, it unwittingly drew attention to our government’s fiscal recklessness. It was lost on President Goodluck Jonathan that while Banda had sold her cash-strapped country’s only presidential jet to save costs, he has, in three years in office, expanded Nigeria’s executive fleet to 10 aircraft. http://www.punchng.com/editorial/nigerian-jet-for-malawian-president/ 49 Likes |

Ade0001: Jonathan has no excuse to continue keeping 10 aircraft and our under-performing legislators have no reason to keep approving new purchases or the billions of naira they appropriate for their maintenance each year. It doesn't make any economic sense to continue keeping 10 aircraft for a government that is serious in curbing fiscal profligacy, the cost of maintenance and associated charges in keeping 10 aircraft is not healthy for the economy Ihe grossly under-perforimg and under-productive legislatures should also wake up to their responsibilities and provide a semblance of checks on some of the activities of the executive rather than just serving as leeches and getting paid for doing next to nothing ... 16 Likes |

Trust me some people will come here and defend GEJ for wanting to buy more planes than the Malawian president has in her fleet of cars The amount spent on the maintenance of these aircrafts can build a power plant for a community in a year 19 Likes |

Malawi just could not afford to keep the jets but Nigeria could What is the essence of the African brotherhood if not to help one another . That the government is spending excessively and the citizens lack to will to question or stop it should not be the fault of Jonathan. The logic is this , if Nigerians cannot question their LGA Chairmen about the over N50m coming to council every months , why should they bother about how FG in far away Abuja is spending the free , unaccounted money 8 Likes |

And it would've been ungracious/insulting if Banda spurned the Nigerian Government's offer, even though that's exactly what should've happened. Well, who no like awoof? Better to eat Naija's money than her country's own. 1 Like |

Mr President, this is embarrassing to read. As a bigboy I know d president of africa's most populous country needs to populate his fleet of aircrafts accordingly but with 3 you will still outshine even the queen. I'm tired of the 'opposition' taking cheap shots at you. Don't give them reasons to. Pls, act accordingly. For the sake of the one vote you'll get from me. Except, of course, my vote doesn't matter |

The difference between Nigeria and other countries highlighted by the OP is that our money pumps in like water(OIL) while the other nations tax their citizens. We are rich nation not by human resources but with natural endowments. Btw... Airforce 1 jet of the American President can swallow all of Nigerias presidential fleet. 3 Likes |
