shortgun:The $100million (N150billion) price tag dubiously bandied about by the presidential spokesperson is just the face value. After acquiring such luxurious jets, it's standard practice to reconfigure it to desired style and taste. I can bet my last dime an additional $20-50 million dollars was spent in reconfiguring that aircraft before delivering it to Nigeria. Actual cost of that jet should be in the range of N200-250billion. Nigeria has some of the most insensitive leaders in the world, and of course some of the most foolish followers. A look around this thread and you'd see some foolish followers who cant afford danfo fare defending such wasteful expense. |

spiSeyi:US can afford the Air force 1 with a GDP more than 60 times Nigeria's GDP. And budget revenues more than 100 times Nigeria's. We really need to be cutting our cloth accordingly. |

Omodua:I don't usually answer questions like this but you may truly not be aware which shouldn't be because you have internet. America president uses their Air Force jets and they have 5,217 active aircrafts. However, they have two specially made aircrafts named "Air Force One" which their president uses when traveling far distance that cost them approx. $5 billion each as at that time. Till now, I'm not sure the entire west African countries leaders have spent a combined total of such amount on their aircrafts. Additionally, Air Force One was built to last nothing less than a century. So stop comparing our baby aircrafts to American Air Force One like the OP. Nigeria 10 years annual budgets cannot purchase one. |

TemplarLandry:Nigeria belong in the category of 3rd to 4th world country abandoned old presidential plan. but a almighty America still using old plan ? this is serious. now you understand why the people managing our economy are wasteful and ignorance. |
| Re: US President Still Using 34-Year-Old Plane But Nigeria Abandoned 19-Year-Old by spiSeyi: 5:22pm On Aug 20, 2024 |
btoks:FYI : Nigeria can afford it and I don't think this should be a problem because our GDP is 100x the price of that plane and it's not a personal property. |

spiSeyi:Well, you can say that but the reality is - money would be better spent building infrastructure that would benefit many more at the moment. I don't really see the benefits of the Nigerian president having his own jet at this time. It costs a lot to maintain. If for anything, it'll be good to show that government is serious about cutting unnecessary costs. We have no pipe borne water, poor education, inadequate power, many problems. Nigerian president could do without this jet for now. |

CyrusVI:since our leaders believe so much in running to those foreign countries, invest and send there children to school abroad we have every justification to compare Nigeria with those countries our leaders run to for health these bunch of evil leaders run abroad to enjoy dividend of good governance they swore not to provide in there own country. and can that foolish onabayo tell us why the cardillac beast was a necessity, the cars buhari bought are they also faulty or tew old useless wicked govt |

CyrusVI:There is nothing irrelevant about the comparison. Nigeria and the US operate same system of govt, and the US is the standard every developing nations wishes to emulate. Comparing our govt to the US govt doesn't take anything away from our sovereignty |
