Goat, didn't u read where it was said dat the new ones were purchased in 2010 Has jonathan been elected in 2010.. If u want to criticise, why not do it with some sense..

Cow, who was the President of Nigeria and Commander-in-Chief of the Nigerian Armed forces when the three aircrafts were purchased in 2010? Your father? Your folly has no rival!

Great peice!

It's interesting to note that GEJ and IBB made the biggest single addition of aircrafts to the PAF.

GEJ's forceful decision against public outcry to buy 2 Falcon and a luxury Gulfstream V overnight was my decision-maker back then in 2010 that he's lacks ideas in prioritization. Obj bought 2 - one of which was a 2nd-hand which refused to take-off at a summit in Uganda.

diarra94: so because he didnt purchase it he cant reduce the number considerately. with pple like you in existence, no hope for nigeria.

Yes with pple lyk u, there is hope for Nigeria when you cannot rationalise before criticising.. The point I am trying to make is dat u re too quick to criticise jonathan not taking into consideration the fact that he didn't make it so.. Those fleets have been lyk dat since objs regime.. The latest ones were purchased when yar'adua was in power..its little wonder turai wasn't too willing to let it go when her husband was nowhere to be found... Owk if you want Jonathan to become the Nigerian Jesus christ why don't u just say so.. Next tin u wud say he should vacate aso rock and start living in Gwagwalada since the cost of maintaining his presidential suite is too expensive...

Oh! While it's true that it wasn't GEJ that bought these aircrafts but him maintaining the status quo means he approves such reckless spending. What means has he put in place to reduce this wastage? Your premise is faulty to say the least. FYI, i'm not anti-GEJ neither am i pro-GEJ, i'm only a concerned citizen who wants the best for his country.

What really is the point of this article?!


Is it to tell the Presidency to give some of its aircrafts to Chachangi, Medview and First Nation or what?!



I would have respected this news if they didnt try to make it look like the problems with the Aviation Sector with regards to the ill fortunes of 'Privately owned' Airlines had something to do with the Presidents fleet of Jets.

Also, I dont care if the Queen of England enters into Keke Napep to travel, we need to stop comparing ourselves to the Whites everytime. We want the Presidency to be as prudent as the Westerners when it comes to owning Jets, but we dont want to allow liberal rights of the Westerners with regards to Homosexuality and co like the West has done.. angry

If the Presidency feels it needs 10 planes, then it needs 10 planes..
If Stella Oduah needed 2 bulletproof cars, then she needed 2 bulletproof cars..


My problem is that the President still flies in a G-V when Oyedepo flies in a G-VI.. angry Thats a National shame. The Presiident should sell his G-V or dash it to one Pastor and upgrade. Also, why dont we have a proper Large sized Jumbo Jet like the A380 or the Boeing 777 in the Presidential fleet?

I think the President should sell off all those ancient planes and get 4 brand new planes;

1. Custom made A380|Boeing 777 or the Dreamliner.. #Eagle 1 (for International Assignments)
2. 1 Brand new Custom Gulfstream VI
3. 1 Brand new Custom Boeing Business Jet2 (Custom)
4. 1 Bombardier BD 700 (Custom)


Instead of having 10 cheapass Jets.. Reduce it to 4 top of the line Aircrafts.. If the President looks Good outside, then the Outsiders would wanna come to Nigeria.

No, i'm not. I'm saying that if he's truly committed to reducing wastage in govt, he shld reduce the number of aircrafts in his fleet. Like it was written in d article, other countries even the developed ones maintain an average of 2 planes. Why should Nigeria's case be different?

Owk mr idiot, u remember the president purchased 3 as soon as he was elected.. How comes u do not remember that they were purchased as a replacement for the worn out dilapidated air crafts... U don't remember that those aircrafts were purchased not for his use but for the use of others in his ministry.. If the president dies in a plane crash tomorrow, una go say him too dull.. Have u forgotten how the presidents plane encountered technical difficulties as he was returning from the 15th annual general assembly meeting in uganda??
Have u forgotten dat the airforce made this recommendation as far back as 2010??
Jonathan is not the reason why dat fleet is dat large fool, obasanjo bought 2 during his time..

that is the biggest bullshit i ever read, there are many countries in the world where there President has no jet, and this countries belong to the top 30 Nation of the world.

Where they people have free health service, where every kid can go to the University also when they parents didnot have much money, where no body have fear when they lost there job that they stand on the street and have nothing to eat. No one has to ask in the internet for money that he can have a kidney transplantation in India because he need it but he has no money..........

That Oyedepo has a newer jet than the president that is not important, from where did he get the moneys from his stupid followers so this is no big deal.

Yeah!!! And America with only 2 Presidential Planes owes more money than Nigeria, Has a fucke'dup healthcare system (prior to Obamacare), is currently still recovering from the high Jobloss that came with the Economic crunch and University Education is not cheap either..

Point is simply, Nigerias Problems have nothing to do with the number of Jets that the Presidency owns..



And I find it offensive that Oyedepo would own a more current Jet that the President of the country.. angry Nobody should drive a more current Car, fly a more current Jet or sail a more current Yatch that the Presidency.. angry
