''In an interview, Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika said the Federal Government would deliver a new national carrier- Nigeria Air – in 2021.

Sirika said adequate preparations had been made and that N78.96 billion had been budgeted in the 2021 Appropriation Bill to implement the plan for a new national carrier, among other projects.

The establishment of the national carrier, he said, would be carried out in partnership with the private sector.

He said: “In 2021, the sum of N78.960 billion is being proposed for capital expenditure at the headquarters in the aviation ministry and the emphasis will focus on the implementation of the Aviation Roadmap as directed by Mr. President.

“The roadmap would be implemented through Public Private Partnership (PPP), topmost of which will be the establishment of a national carrier”.

Other projects to be executed, according to him, are the establishment of Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRC) facility, Agro-Allied Cargo Infrastructure, Aviation Leasing Company, Search and Rescue Unit and Aerospace University with the support of International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO)...''

200 Million Dollar in the midst of Hunger and starvation ravaging the people. Go bless the people who gifted us this gift.

On Nigerian Railway:

Fed govt: We will revitalise the railway system.
Ipob miscreants: govt of future tense will, will will and will will.

When the project gathered momentum:

Fed govt: we are committed to the revitalisation of our railway system.
Ipob miscreants: It was initiated by gej.

When the project started getting delivered:

Fed govt: we are committed to the delivery.
Ipob miscreants: Na him papa money he use do am? And why is it mostly on the North and west?

On the 2nd Niger Bridge: Same scenario is playing out.

It is now Nigerian Air: 100% sure of same movie.

Star boy Osinbajo, as you take over the mantle of leadership in 2023, pls simply ignore shildren of 8, anger, perdition and frustration. Concentrate and remain focused cos they can only make inconsequential on social media. When they disturb the peace of law abiding citizens, deal with them ruthlessly.

If hunger and starvation is ravaging you, GO TO THE VILLAGE AND FARM.

The government - both state and federal, are supporting farmers in various ways nowadays, and many farmers are smiling to the bank.

So if you are hungry and starving, GO AND FARM. THE LAND IS FERTILE. We all come from a village somewhere where you can go and demand a piece of land to cultivate.

Buhari banned rice and other food imports so that when YOU go and cultivate them, you will harvest and sell them easily, and make profits, rather than competing with foreign products from Thailand and China.

So take advantage of those policies established to make life better for YOU.

Like d last time abii.....lolz

What I like about this is that, because it is Buhari, you JUST KNOW the programme will come to fruition.

When Buhari commits to a project, he sees it through to the end.

He doesn't do abandonment of projects.

Or the one that they will commit so so so and so billions to a project, and then later they will share the money, and you won't hear anything again about the project. That is not Buhari's style.

.. Don't mind that frustrated guy..hunger has affected his sense of reasoning.

Buhari needs lesson from PDP in every way

Another scam loading.After Ahmed Sirika-the president's kinsman launched the logo of this same imaginary airline in London for #1.5B & all the lies Lai Mohammed used to cover up the matter while no one have been punished?
Go learn from Ibom Air how to float & sustain an airline.

If it's a scam, why should they go and learn anything from Ibom Air?

You must be confused.

Dispute what I said with counter facts man.Have you ever board the scam Air Nigeria airline the government in it deceptive trademark, embarrassed this nation with nationally & internationally then? The matter ought to have been investigated with the present minister of aviation & Lai Mohammed punished accordingly for deceiving the nation.

I directed them to Ibom Air because they need to learn from that reputable state-owned airline what its means to launch & sustain an airline.Of course, until it comes to fruition, it remains another scam.As par follow follow crew, they always do the thinking for you lots.

What a stupid way of reasoning. It is either a scam or it is not. Make up your mind.

"Re-launch" OP.

The problem with Nigeria air isn't the launching...the issue is, would government allow the airline to run profitably?

The old Nigeria Airways failed because it was not run as a profitable concern.

Buhari ndi bastard, those fools wan chop our money again but we no go gree for them

This is a PPP project. Research the meaning of that, and you won't be saying this.

Is this gonna be the launch of the Nigerian Airways or the launch of the Nigerian Airways logo

rossipki:

If what you are saying is true...I do hope it works.

I recall Air Nigeria under PDP...joint venture with Virgin Atlantic...failed after some years running.

Mind you, I want Nigeria to have a proper national carrier....I just don't want the mistakes of the past to repeat themselves.

Time for The big boys to cash out yet again

Someone once said that "the only refreshing aspect of the Buhari-led APC government is the frankness of it dishonesty." Of course that is absolutely true because here is a govt that have shamelessly lied & greatly insulted the sensibility of Nigerians by employing the weapon of lies and propaganda to govern.

What about the failed One-year One-refinery promise, what about the failed Ogoni cleanup and the promise to reducie the presidential fleet to float a national airline? Same fleet he is still maintaining many of the aircrafts @ the expense of lean state resources right? What about Buhari going for medical tourism abroad against his own words?

Were the budget padders in the NASS punished in 2016 as promised by Mr.Anti-corrupt czar? Instead Jubril the whistleblower was asked by Mr.president to mellow down because it is a party affair-just imagine.What about the untouched corruption of Lawal Babachir, Danjuma Goje, Abdullahi Adamu, Isah Yaguda, Prof.Yusuf(former NHIS sect.) among many?

What about the fuel subsidy they claim was a fraud that they exploited & now allegedly wants to reintroduce again? So given the hypocrisy & double standards of this govt, their words hold no water in any wise.So whatever they say remain a hoax or scam until proven otherwise.Be more intelligent man.

Abeg get lost with all this rubbish.

Nit-picking rubbish.

If this is the most you can dig up, then it is testament to the comparative honesty and integrity of the Buhari administration.

Just one story of grand corruption by the Jonathan government will dwarf all this stuff you're typing.

Diezani that stole BILLIONS OF DOLLARS fled the country in 2015 and has still not returned. Last time I heard she has acquired Dominican citizenship. Even Britain has her under house arrest.

Please, Buhari runs a government of saints compared to the Jonathan lootocracy.

"Any person who is obsessed with proclaiming his so called integrity at the slightest opportunity but won’t investigate, much less fire, shady characters he has appointed to work with and for him can’t possibly be truly a person of integrity. 

This attitude of mollycoddling corrupt but loyal aides and appointees while pretending to be a man of “integrity” who is “fighting” corruption is getting worse by the day indicates that, in spite of self-righteous declarations to the contrary, Buhari is himself morally indistinguishable from his crooked cronies.

They are trying to bring back the scam

This is a good development.

But it should be partly owned by government and managed by Private Sector Partners.

A model after EgyptAir and Ethiopian airlines will be nice.

Nigeria wants to establish national carrier with N78bn.
Na keke napep go dey fly be dat

Ok

Another means to loot.

Haba! New year new scam. Will it be asking too much if that money is diverted to completely fix at least one of our moribund refineries?
