Ethiopian Airlines is in talks to take over management of Nigeria's troubled Arik Air.

Nigeria’s government took over Arik Air early this year after it declared heavy losses.

Ethiopian Airlines’ head for international services, Esayas Woldemariam, told the Associated Press news agency that the negotiations follow a request by Nigeria’s aviation ministry.

“We definitely are willing and able to take over the management of Arik Air,” he told AP.

State-owned Ethiopian Airlines is Africa's most profitable carrier.

Ethiopia wants to buy Nigeria.

Half the UN budget for food goes to Ethiopia.

A shame. A pity. Terrible. Don't allow it.

Nigerian government must not allow it.

Funny thing is, they invited Ethiopian Airlines. Useless people running the government.

They should go ahead pleaseZz very useless airline

whatever, pretty soon, all Nigerians apart from d elites will be sold to slavery as well.

Cursed country!!!!!

May God save ur sorry ass & guide it towards d correct path

Everything our Government touches is finished or destroyed
Why?
Corruption has finished this country and its damn too much

Even corruption is now afraid of Nigeria Government

They should also take over the management of Aso Villa, this APC government is a bigger loser than Arik Air.

Which way to go again? All we are 100% perfectly okay with is scam..

Better. A country that cannot manage even airline. Check very well a northerner precisely who read food nutrition in one college of education in sambesi forest is the director of airline business in Nigeria. Bunch of comedians.

may God help Nigeria. smh

They should take it over already.

Arik no be am at all.

when one hears this i begin to wonder what happened to Nigerian Airways.
What works in this country self?.

Lol

Even more corrupt to collabo with a foreign company

Nooooooo!

If an incompetent child wants to drive your car, will you let him? If Nigerians deserve to own it, they should put in money, and run it properly. Ethiopian Airlines been very competent over the past few decades, serving 90+ countries, and this will help them expand their route and give the rest of us Africans good service without dependence on oyinbo airlines.

It's sad that Nigeria has no flagship, but perhaps instead of mismanaging companies, this should be a wake-up call.

Eyaaa...your naive.

This is international politics.

You can't let a lesser country come and purchase one of your top companies.

We don't have enough Nigerian owned companies owned by Nigerians and this lesser country wants to purchase one of our best companies.

How many Nigerian companies have made foreign acquisitions??
