This is a very impressive list. The only difference between these guys and the likes of Davido is that their average net worth is over $1 billion. So they can afford the outright purchase of an embrarer or a gulfstream and also pay a flight crew plus necessary maintenance. It's not an easy feat to own and pay a flight crew of pilots and flight attendance whose yearly salaries can cost 150 million naira and then cost of jet fuel for every hour of flight you could be shelling out 7 million naira and then maintenance takes the cake, you can easily pour over 200 million in maintenance alone. These guys can spend such amounts of money every week for the rest of their lives and still be multi billionaires, but Davido and Wizkid cannot, they instead lease a private jet and deceive the masses that they own it. Not hating here but we should never forget that in 1994 Rashidi Yekini became the first Nigerian player to score in the world cup tournament where we defeated Bulgaria 3-0.
none of these guys has a networth of $1b. Donald trump is just $3b

Let’s face it, flying in your own private jet is the ultimate way of moving around.

It is also a good method of saving travel time.

Very few people can afford to buy their own private jet, which is why only a select few have their own.

So, we have listed a few famous people -  entertainers and athletes  - who flying first class on a commercial plane just won’t do it for them.

Some of them are listed below.

The aircraft features separate bathrooms for the crew and passengers, wardrobes, internet access, telephone, fax, microwave, electric oven, fridge for drinks, and entertainment systems.
