150 Billion in 1973? Not even a good lie.

1500 Destinations in 1973? Complete lie.

The truth is that Nigerian Airways back then was just as bad as the country.
I took one of their last flights to JFk and we ended up not leaving for almost 24 hours having to sleep on the floor at MMA.
Just like with everything Nigerian, those with connections were given hotel rooms while young ones like myself were left to sleep at the airport waiting for almost 24 hours before departure to JFK.

Nigeria was never meant to be. Nigeria was created on a faulty foundation and was only a matter of time before it crumbled. The result of which we are seeing today.Of course there is no solution in sight.

Nigeria hostess in 1973, Nigeria leaders are among the best in the world. They have turned Nigeria airways to a super intercontinental carrier with 1500 destination across the globe, generating 150 billion naira yearly and providing jobs to 10,000 Nigerians, Kenya and Ethiopia, South Africa and the United Arab Emirates have indicated interest in learning the magic industrious Nigerians, now the towering pride of the black world.
But no tears drop down my eyes. Well, let just face the reality and forget past glory. Although it an history for some!

That figure of 150 billion per year is suspect considering the naira at that point was roughly equla to the dollar. Maybe they meant to say 150 million naira.

The story doesn't draw any tears from me! The elements running Nigeria today are the same ones that ran it back then and ran it aground! The rot wasn't showing that much then because they had just started their ruinous control of power, plus the fact there was plenty of petro-dollars to cover up their mistakes at the time!
True. But you can't compare the level of corruption now to what we had then. Then we still had the "ten-percenters"; today, they steal 100 percent and do nothing. Our rulers and public office holders went from stealing to plundering starting with the Babangida era.

Nonsense



these people that destroyed your power sector, Education, aviation, industrialization, agriculture, innovations are either in power today or in opposition. these beasts are still being worshipped by you brainless idiots, so what sober is the Op talking about


go and make a research about the developing and developed countries today, their citizens were patriotic to the country and not to individuals as we do here in Nigeria hence the progress.


Nigeria is an underdeveloped country to me, a country that have 20% physical development and 0% human development shouldn't count herself among the developing countries. shame on Nigeria and Nigerians


Shame on Azikwe
Awolowo and other useless Ancestors who laid down the foundation of this useless and Godforsaken country

This was when we still had small “British brain”. Now our mentality and orientation has strayed so far from what our colonial masters taught us.

Fighting for independence so soon was Nigeria’s biggest mistake.
