That the so called youths on this forum think this is a good idea is probably why Nigeria is doomed.


This is worse than a terrible idea.


I give up

I actually think it is a very good idea.
If countries can run airlines and generate significant revenue from it, then why not states?
In Nigeria, the market is large.

And depending on how professional and efficiently it is ran, it could become an international player and earn foreign revenue for the state.

The real question is will the akwa ibom government run it properly, both in finance and administration?

That is the million dollar question.

1) Very few countries run airlines and a large number of those that run airlines, them subsidize the airlines(Emirates, Qatar et al).
2) Nigeria is not a large market. When it comes to airlines, Nigeria is a tiny market.
3) Lol at Ibom air being an international player.

Have you checked how many private airlines in Nigeria are profitable?

Igbobyblood:
why do you think so?

The airline business is capital intensive and to make any sort of profit, you need volume...

so uyo don't have huge population?

This airline wl wreck within 6months



Airline business is very hard, cost of maintenance only wl eventually sink the airline

hope this is not only on paper.well until I see..God bless Akwa ibom state...

Igbobyblood:

When I say volume, I meant routes and Uyo doesn't have a huge population when it comes to airlines.
