Even POS agents at a moderately okay location make at least 100k per month.

We will continue to celebrate good news of Buhari's achievements. Nigeria Air is one of his many achievements. Thank you sir.

GloriousGbola:
Let us assume the airline is real (it clearly isn't) how does that constitute an achievement?

monerozi5590:
You are seriously asking this kind of question?

iamoyindamola:
Larride did they buy borrow that plane from Ethiopia?

Yes I am. This is 2023. It should be crystal clear by now that the government should keep it hands out of commercial business.

We have lived through the failures of nepa, nitel, nnpc. It is Buhari who has rose colored glasses for government run business

This is a National Carrier for crying out loud. Do you even know what it will do to our image and opportunities it will also create.

FG stated that it will partner Ethiopian Airlines. Ethiopian Airlines are the core investors but it will carry our name and flag. This will do a lot to our aviation sector. Na David Hundeyin know watin en d reveal. Is fine if you don't believe.


Is an achievement to me and I will praise him for that.

OasisX:


.....ain't interested in this discourse but just wanna make something clear - ET own 49% while FG own mere 5%.

GloriousGbola:
By itself that shows the whole national carrier noise is already unmitigated bs. Las Las Ethiopian Airlines will just rebrand their Nigerian offices and planes flying naija routes. Also, who owns the remaining 44%? Of our 'national' carrier?

OasisX:


.....ain't interested in this discourse but just wanna make something clear - ET own 49%, NSIA own 46% while FG own mere 5%.

NSIA is an independent investment institution, set up to manage Nigeria's Sovereign Wealth Fund in excess of budgeted hydrocarbon revenues.

GloriousGbola:
What opportunities? Is Nigeria a major travel destination? Is Nigeria a travel hub?

Image? Setting up an airline will somehow improve Nigerias standing and reputation? And this perceived image boosting will lead to what? Cancelling of our debt? Foreign investment?

We already have multiple local private airlines in our aviation sector. So maybe you can explain what the addition of a poorly run airline will achieve.

For a country struggling with debt, reduced revenue, and an unbalanced budget this is nothing but an act of hubris and foolishness. Incidentally it is what African leaders have been lambasted for in the past. Meaningless vanity projects.

GloriousGbola:
So our depleted excess crude account is allegedly being spent on this?

BlueRayDick:


National carrier is one of the achievements of Buhari ,

God epp us!

chrisooblog:
Ethiopia Airlines owns 49% of Nigerian Air so it's possible they rustled up a plane and painted it Nigerian Air colours for the optics.

Still some way to go before the airline launches properly.

larride:
I haven't been following the news today but from what I know of the Nigeria Air, Ethophia Air is the joint partner.

GloriousGbola:
National carrier with major ownership by an actual national carrier and 46% ownership funded via our dead excess crude account.

History will not be kind to Buhari. He is a complete disaster

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Why dem no sign the partnership with Air Peace?

Everytime, na to carry our opportunity go give foreigners

iamoyindamola:
Even you🤣🤣

GloriousGbola:
We know Buhari no sabi econs.

We sha expected him to sort security and corruption, esp as he was not a member of the chairman of the board establishment.

But he fked those up too. Now as his admin is winding down we are being presented with this insult paraded as an achievement

OasisX:


Did they bid for it all?

izzou:
[color=royalblue]I don't know oh.

This Ethiopian partnership may not add anything tangible to the country

The country just owns 5%.

Looks more like Ethiopian airline is rebranding their office to Nigeria Air.[/color]
