Does Nigeria need a national carrier?

Nigeria does not need a national carrier, seeing as Nigerians are unable to manage govt business without running it down sooner or later with corruption, nepotic appointments, and sheer incompetence. The US does not have any either; and I believe Air France (AF), KLM etc are private ventures now, with the French govt having less than 20% of the AF shares.. Lufthansa stopped being the German national carrier since 1994 and is completely private, even owning Brussels Air, Austria Air, Swiss Air, etc.


What Nigeria need are well managed and run private carriers with international reputation. What stops Dangote, Ovie, Elumelu, etc (individually or as a group) or even our so called big banks, from investing in and creating international airlines?

Exactly my point. Nigeria is the most underperforming country in the world among the supposedly wealthy countries. The level of governmental incompetence is mind boggling.
