The reason is that the UK government subsidizes the aviation industry with more than £10 billion (10 trillion naira) every year.

The same goes for most of the advanced countries where people have to travel long distances to connect to various states or provinces.

Nigerian government cannot afford to pay that money. That's why I keep telling people to erase the impression that Nigeria is rich. With or without corruption, this country is flat broke. We need smart thinkers as leaders to start harnessing our untapped potential.

I honestly don't get why u can get flight from London to Paris for under £50 ... There are flights under £20

Their pilots earn more, their workers generally earn more than Nigerian aviation workers by a factor of over 7

Aviation fuel is way cheaper in Nigeria

So why exactly is flight far more expensive in Nigeria

I honestly can't get it honestly

So it is compulsory we support obi bcox he is Igbo.

And pls use osinbajo as cover up bcox it won't fly.

Sorry to disappoint you, I didn't see any track record or achievement of Peter obi and I'm sure most of you know that too but you supported bcox you all think it's time for Yr tribal person to rule. Or shey na the attack ń blackmail by you folks I wan start to dey talk about?

Don't stress ursef boss.... This is democracy

Why is it that a currency ($) that Nigeria doesn't own nor print keeps having such an insane influence on our local economy??

GetSenseNow:


No one asked you to support Obi because he's Igbo. And Osibanjo was the only candidate I and my people were rooting for before he was cheated out during the APC primaries. Do you think someone like Osibanjo would've suddenly removed subsidy without making sure modalities had already been put in place to cushion the effects? Sometimes una need to dey think.

The funny thing is that if you guys were asked to vote TInubu as president of Yorubaland you'll never do that

It's greed of the black man... The airline operators won't disclose the exact amount of money they make with just one trip carrying hundreds of passangers.. not to talk of the multiple trips per day and amount they make on weekly and monthly basis.
They have formed cabals in the aviation industry to be milking Nigerians just like other sectors.

One bus will carry 18 - 22 people max at 35k for 10 - 14 hours journey but plane will lift as much as 400+ passangers at once for airbus for a 1hr 15mins trip.
They are telling us rubbish just to jistify their own 419 activities.

You won't say this if you run a business under the current atmosphere even if its pure water you are selling, but I won't blame you since your work is extorting struggling bus and Keke drivers and threatening to break their side mirrors and windscreen while screaming "Owomida and Owo Shiaman"

If we leave tribalism aside, we know the kinda people who would do a good job of leading this shithole forward.
If you guys can't support an Igbo man, you should've supported osibanjo. Most of my fellow Igbos are ok with either osibanjo or Obi. I don't understand why Nigerians like voting career politicians to lead them. You guys are a weird bunch

Did you read what you just typed?

Just an Hour Flight is 60k with no guarantee of risk free or survival assurance in case of disaste and you said it's very fair.
Meanwhile God is God will run for a whole 10 to 12 hours for less than half that amount

The flight might has over 100 passengers on board wile GOD IS GOOD just 14

One hour flight shouldn't worth more than 40/50k


As at when I used to pay Flight tickets from Lagos to Uyo for 15k
God is God was about 5k same destination

That's 10k difference

What's happening now

Acidosis:



Erroneous interpretations everywhere.


The difference between 5k and 15k is 10k to market women, but in the realm of economics, it's a 200% increase.

By your own calculations: when GIG sells ticket for 30k, flight should be 90k, not 40k (market women calculation).

Harrynight:



Ok what the market women are running are geography or Biology not Economics. WELL-DONE Sir


And don't forget that between that time of 5k Transport by land and 15k by air TILL NOW... Aviation fuel has only increased with about 400% while Petrol rises with a whopping 600% increase

Pierocash:
Make it 600k. Thieves.
