Quintopia: Ethiopia's 2022 budget was $15bn for 120 million people. In other words, Nigeria's budget per capita ($175) is barely higher than that of Ethiopia ($125). Yet Ethiopia is able to run a viable national airline (owned 100% by the government), with a fleet of 135 aircraft. Please see two links below directly from the Boeing website, showing direct orders for brand new aircraft by Ethiopian airlines. https://www.boeing.com/commercial/customers/ethiopian-airlines/ethiopian-airlines-announce-order-for-20-737-max-8s.page https://boeing.mediaroom.com/2022-05-25-Boeing-and-Ethiopian-Airlines-Announce-Order-for-Five-777-Freighters Note that a brand new Boeing 777 freighter costs $350m. They ordered FIVE (5) in May of this year alone. They also ordered TWENTY (20) 737 Max 8 Jets (total cost - $2.1 bn), with a potential for 15 more orders. So let me ask you... how is Ethiopia able to afford direct orders for new aircraft from Boeing and we can only manage to lease 3 aircraft... none of which we have ever seen? The stupidity of your post (aside from the astounding ignorance) is you pontificating about how "foolhardy and extremely profligate for a govt with such a tiny budget to expend the money on commercial aircraft purchases"... in the same country that has enough money to fly its government officials to foreign countries for medical attention. According to Transparency International, Gen. Abacha looted about $5bn as of 1998, which would be worth $9.1bn in today's value. That is enough to buy 20 Boeing 737 Max 8 Jets and a further 20 Boeing 777 freighters or 82 Airbus 320neo Jets, BRAND NEW. Take a hike please... you're simply an ignorant water carrier for the most corrupt government the world has ever seen. |

Quintopia: If you believe any of that, then you're an ultimate pawn. What happened to Virgin Nigeria? You think any sensible foreign partner is willing to do business with Alhaji Sirika? Quite clear why Nigeria remains a hellhole... too many idiots who spout online with no clue what they are talking about. |

arrant nonsense!what is the hurry about?why not wait till you can afford your own aircraft! |

A country that wants a national carrier does not own one aircraft, instead they want to lease, why not allow one of the established local airlines to carry your logo, do a franchise arrangement, that way you conserve funds. How do you run a regional/ international airline with only 3 aircraft? Old wine in a new bottle. You to start leasing an aircraft when you re not an established brand, wrong start indeed. They have already perfected arrangements to enrich a private person's pocket. |

TWoods: I wanted to add that Ethopia has a better government than Nigeria, less corrupt and Ethopia has a pedigree of good leadership that spanned several decades, please dont compare such a country with Nigeria, they re galaxies apart. |

The world buys aircrafts, Nigeria is leasing because no regime wants a permanent infrastructure for the dying country. |

quentin06: My point was that Nigeria can undoubtedly afford a viable airline... and a government that has spent 5 years "building an airline" and only has a logo and the promise of 3 lease aircraft to show for it should not be taken seriously. |
