For once a good decision. They should never have wasted our money on it to begin with. All that expensive London launch.

FG has no business starting any commercial venture to find investors later. It will become another conduit pipe and would never fly.

Our cumbersome and corrupt bureaucracy alone easily put off any honest investors.

Even corruption friendly Lebanese and Indian investors cannot see it making profits.

Most airlines run very tiny profit margins. Even the very best among them.

Should 'suspend' be the right word? From my understanding of the word, you can only suspend what is in progress (however little). Nothing tangible was really done about this, save the unveiling of the name and logo - with the accompanying fanfare. How long would it take a serious set of people to float an airline? 100 years? Take a certain Air Peace as an example. This company took off in 2013 (5 years ago), as a strictly private concern. Today, it flies to about 20 destinations and has a fleet of about 20 aicrafts (mostly Boeing 737s), and has recently ordered an additional 13 aircrafts (10 of which are NEW Boeing 737 Max 8; they will fly straight in from the Boeing plant in Renton, Washington D.C.) in an industry where most airlines actually operate aircrafts on lease, and where aircrafts as old as 15 years are considered relatively new! So what excuse does a nation have in not being able to operate a viable and profitable airline? Did Buhari not find time to go gallivant in Oshogbo? These guys just don't know what it takes...our priority scale is warped! So bleeping warped. It beats me how the alarm hasn't sounded yet in our heads, even with the way things have gone. This is no blind, uninformed criticism. I gave the Air Peace-example so that we can see that we aren't cursed or shackled, we simply are not bothered enough. Talk of blissful ignorance.

I must confess that Nigeria is the most incompetent country in the world!!

The stupidity of our leaders is on an uncharted scale!! Why would a minister launch something as significant as a national carrier a few months ago only to announce now that it's been suspended.

I have always had hope for this country, but to be honest I am on the verge of giving up on this country. Middle class are now checking out to Canada in droves and I cant blame them.

Maybe my feeling this way is because I'm currently in Dubai and seeing what has been done with oil money and seeing structure and purpose in place, it just makes you angry!! From airport, to roads, to organised driving, to neat taxi's with meters, to organised city layout, to stable electricity, to working metro....!!! Just name it!!

Yet in Nigeria, we are not smart enough to clean our own gutters, clear drains, properly patch our roads, design our own city, get danfo drivers organised, get tanker drivers off the roads etc. Why are we so useless!!?? And to be honest, as bad as the government is, we ourselves have a problem. When you travel elsewhere, you just realize how much of a filthy people we are. Who born you to drop coke bottle for floor, or eat gala and drop wrapper for bus stop floor for dubai? Or to just be weeing on the side of the road anywhere. In Dubai since you know you cant wee anywhere, you make a note of weeing before leaving where you are to ensure you can get to your destination safe. But here a man leaves his house and in 10mins he's weeing on the road. I know we have multiple excuses (no public toilets, no this, no that), but even at times when govt has tried to provide, have we used it?

I once saw a woman driving an IX35 (so you would suppose she's a bit educated and learned) wind down the back window of her car while driving on Aba road in PH, for her kids who had bought takeaway from an eatery to throw out the foam pack with left over rice, chicken bone, coke bottle out on the road. If anyone had challenged her, she would even argue with you that wettin concern you and most passer by would even support her. That's the kind of people we have become.

Nigeria needs a military style of discipline and reorientation walahi!! With serious koboko for like 5 years so that we start to behave ourselves again. We had it before the first coup, started loosing our sanity during military era, was on the verge of gaining it back during Idiagbon, but unfortunately lost it for good. Now so many generations have been born without basic decency and civility that to go back to basic manners is almost impossible.

That's why I often tell people that this Democracy we are practicing cannot take us anywhere in like 100 years! We need a benevolent military leader to cause us to make progress swiftly by manhandling us into shape for some time. Unfortunately the same brutal power to change things immediately that we'd need this person to have, would likely corrupt him and he'd become a despot, unless God just wan help us. How can Kigali which was war torn like 10 - 15 years ago be a better organised, cleaner city than Lagos!!! What have we been doing since!!! Where is our own common sense to do things!!! Soon Monrovia and Freetown will be better organised than Lagos.

Why are we just an overall useless nation!!!!!
