1) Slots are never given to subpar airlines like Arik to fly over populated domestic airspace.

Go pull up the landing charts of the main JFK runway and use that to answer your kindergartner question. It's not my job to educate you.

Are you saying New york is not US airspace?

Why would Arik want to land in Las Vegas when it is of no economic benefit to them?

Please pull up a map of the world and check where Nigeria is then check where US is?

Your analogy is flawed and ignorant.

Ethiopian flies to Enugu, Lagos, Abuja and Kano.

BA only flies to Lagos and Abuja does that make BA subpar or does that make Ethiopian better than BA?

Please do some more research on international travel and stop displaying your ignorance.

CityNG:
You're a clueless dunce.

Alitalia, Virgin, Iberia do offer flights that cross the continental air space of the U.S.

They are not limited to just New York and also fly into Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Seattle, etc

I'm an aviation buff so you're swimming out of your depths and frankly floundering.

If you were in the water folks would be throwing you life jackets about now.

These are international airports which those airlines have slots to fly into.

Arik has its greatest passenger base in Newyork, it does not have to fly to Las Vegas or Seattle.

Or is New York one of the largest cities in the US no longer US airspace?

I sincerely hope Buhari will not foolishly try to copy this in order to score a cheap political point.

That may well be the end of the election process for him.

kokoA:
After this your long sermon, is any state in the east as developed as Lagos? Has any eastern governor performed half as Fashola since 1999? What's wrong with one man anointing a candidate provided that candidate delivers dividends of democracy to the people?

What happened to Ado Ekiti, Oshogbo, Akure and the rest?

Lagos that has been FG capital since time immemorial and a separate colony from SW is what you are busy claiming instead of developing your villages.

Say no to servitude.
Start thinking for yourself and stop letting Tinubu dictate for you.
You are not his slave( I hope not).

when i hear is diffrent from when i see.if i see my first name written on something its nothing to me unless my surname is there then curiousity creeps in

lol

Was only being sarcastic.

CityNG:
Also not my job to educate you.

Form your own opinion and allow me to express and enjoy mine.

Arik, as well as other subpar airlines of its type are only allowed to fly a direct approach to a border airport and are NEVER allowed to fly across the continental US, thank God. My tax dollars at work.

DP.

My goodness!
Now it is very obvious you know absolutely nothing about aviation.

What business has Arik with "continental" US.
It is a foreign airline that has a slot for a specific international airport in the US.

If foreign airlines are allowed to ply without control, how will the local aviation industry thrive?

boss1310:
the person that coins this advert idea is brilliant but personally i dont get excited when i see my name cos its not only me that bears it

When you hear your name i guess you don't turn cause it's not only you that bears it.

CityNG:
I'm not accountable to you and owe you zilch explanation. You're free to come to your opinion and I've reached mine after considering available data.

I won't fly my Dog on Arik.

Which data?

No airline with such "horrid" safety record as you have claimed will be allowed to fly in the US, and UK airspaces.

Unless your baseless claims are better than that of their aviation experts.

Krucifax:
On the one hand one may say this is transparent rubbish clearly doctored by the OP to big up his town Ibadan. On the other hand one may say there is nothing wrong about lieing about how fantastic Ibadan is if it attracts people there to live and invest. OP should also go and work for the tourism board of Ibadan as he's trying as unconvincing as he is I still appreciate what he's doing.

I think the OP should just change the topic of the thread as it focuses on only one city.

No harm in show casing Ibadan but, that place still falls way behind many cities when it comes to livability.

OP please change the topic to sights and sounds of Ibadan.

Then try and visit other Nigerian cities.

Watching it live on NTA.

I am sincerely impressed with mama peace, she has tremendously improved in her power of public speech.

She is a strong resilient women who despite all the jabs she has received has stood firm and made herself better.

She is talking without any paper or prompts.

I would really want to see Hajia Buhari come out of her hole and do the same for her husband.

But i wonder if she will, since she did not agree to lend him only 27 million from the 153 she gave away.

CaptainAmerica1:
We don catch una today.

The SW is always insulted for having brown roofs, meanwhile it's the same thing here. Hypocrites!

Issokay.

Everything APC touches becomes rusty.

I don't know why but i just think a car loses its class when you deviate from the factory defaults.

coollexy:
[s]when u say manufacture it implies building d car rite from the raw materials that is from the raw iron ore to the moulding of the engine blocks,the chasis and other body part.dis cant be possible cos d only sources for those raw materials are aladja and ajaokuta steel complex which are dead.wat dis guys do is simply assemble parts from other countries like china and co.and wat they do is not different from wat late PAN automobile,ANAMCO and volks were doing wen our economy was good.if they auto industry is workin in nigeria why are most of our gallant and vibrant engineers still jobless.abi anyboy don hear say dem dey employ before?[/s]

Please educate your self on car manufacturing/assembly then come back and comment.

The tale sounds ridiculous.

If it is true, then it is what you get when you allow APC to creep into your state.

Buhari does not look healthy.

I am the only person genuinely concerned about this man's health?

I am happy he is back so that he can lose as usual and retire peacefully in Daura.

Buhari should come back and lose this election so one can have rest.

jejemanito:
NO IT'S NAFDAC WHO IS WORKING!

It's too early to start this type of madness. For God's sake it's 06:09am!

lol

But if it is a laxity GEJ takes the blame.

phabulux:
I can't stop laughing!

However, you made a mistake too (in go...).

lol
Not too good at pidgin.

temmy3723:
If wishes are horses,a begger will ride Nah. River State is for APC. pls PDP pack well.
APC for change.
With my permutation here Peterside will flour Woke hands down.

Like Buhari like supporters, no be only flour in go flour am, in go add butter and sugar join.

pacesetter939:
Did I hear you say 'he disappeared for days'?
What were you expecting of him, since GEJ and his men forcefully shifted the polls, where you expecting him to sit back tight at home and not take a time off to rest as he has just done?

So anytime Buhari wants to rest he will jet off to the UK.

That simply means he has no passion for Nigeria.

APC does not give a hoot about the Chibok girls.

Infact APC if anything is praying that those girls remain missing.

The bitterness they show with the success of the military against Boko Haram makes it obvious .

pacesetter939:
That the people's General, my General and Nigeria's next PRESIDENT is hitting the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja in a short while from now is no longer news, what is news to me now is the renewed and rekindled strong belief of the majority of the Nigerian people in this uncommon Nigerian -Gen. Muhammadu BUHARI; the symbol of hope, a moving museum of integrity, a statue of justice, a stream of equity and a confluence of Unity.

Welcome home Nigeria's President in waiting!

What you should be bothered about is that Buhari disapeared for days without reason.
That should give anyone cause for concern, we are talking about a presidential candidate here.
Will he continue his disappearing acts if he becomes president (an impossibility)?

CityNG:
1) Arik is not Nigerias national airline

2) Arik has a horrid safety and customer service record

3) It's his money, he can do as he pleases with it

4) He's not on an official Nigerian government trip

You anti Buhari chaps loose again

At number 2, Arik has never been involved in a fatal mishap so where does the horrid safety record come from?

My major worry is that GMB remained incommunicado even days after the Chatam house charade.

That brings back not so fond memories from the past.

Ninilowo:
Osaze is half caste , the boy is full caste.

Some people may find that derogatory.

GenBuhari:
Show me what part of our constitution makes a parallel government treasonable?

It is also unconstitutional and treasonable to hold onto power against the peoples wishes by rigging elections and disadvantaging the opposition.

LoL

If you do not know your country's constitution then what are you doing in politics section?

GenBuhari:
I couldn't have typed such a thing because Buhari was not clueless. So to type such a thing would have been a lie, which would have been unlawful.

Suggestion of the formation of a parallel government is a treasonable offense.

All i know is what is good for Iwu is good for Jega.

When it is time for Jega to go he will go.

Ironi:
Typical Nigeria, now want to make yeye when a few months ago you were running like girls at the mention of Boko Haram.
We all know without Chad, Cameroune and Niger you will still be running away from BH like women so give credit to this countries who are really doing the fighting.
Don bring map say Nigeria Army advances, kai !

olas24u:
lies

oweman:
Seriously speaking am not impressed by this hollow hype , so the military has all along been decieving its commander in chief for more than 5 yesrs ! so as "thing don dey get K leg" they now think otherwise thiugh am not a lover of either Buhari or his party APC the truth is that all what we see today can be traced to Buhari ptomising doing it in 3 months which the military areniwproving him right .
Now the military will be haunted for years ALLOWING
civil Nigerians to be massacred in thousands because of a foolish commander in chief .
God punish you all bastards tha intentionally allowed this to happen to poor villagers you are all scrundreds useless sojas mammy market burukutu DRUNKS .
Infact you are all useless if only those in the North East knew younare this useless but they thought nigeria still have a standing militsry not some corrupt drunks in camouflage Khalki .

Children of anger.

GenBuhari:
where are the videos for this fake war?

Even our civil war in the 1960's has video footage.

Only videos I see are terrorists video.

Nigeria please wake up .
Our govt is in collusion with the destablisation and break up of Nigeria.

read my signature.

APC must set up it parallel government.

If you typed this same thing during your Gen Buhari regime, you would have been arrested and shot in the head.
