Wuoche: See how you are disgracing yourself . So Kenya which a country of 40M people is doing the same number of air travellers as a country with 230M people? And yet you are here yapping how you travel more than Kenyans. With your population your airports should serve at least 48M passengers in a so that you can be considered with Kenya in the same bracket.
Our passenger traffic has been experiencing a two digit growth from 2016.
If not for covid-19 our 2020 traffic should be closer to 25 million .
We are not proud of our past , but we are very much hopeful for the future.

Nope you’re not doing the same air travel has Nigeria.
And the population is not 230 it’s 204 at last estimate.
rvp2018: I bet Nigeria does about that. Last I checked Murtala was down to about 6M passengers and Abuja about 4m. The rest don't really exist.
And you'll hear these west africans talk about being well travelled.
Yet no airline has survived there
Another arse statement bro??
“The total number of passengers who passed through Nigerian airports reached 17,230,438. The total number of international passengers who passed through Nigerian airports reached 4,438,799 in 2018 as against 4,056,717 passengers in 2017. This represents 9.42% growth rate.“
rvp2018: 3.4M is just international arrivals dumb-arse.
The total number of passengers handled increased by 16.8 percent from 10.1 million in 2017 to 11.8 million in 2018. Domestic and international passengers handled increased by 22.5 per cent and 13.1 per cent, respectively, in 2018. International passenger arrivals increased by 13.3 per cent from 3.0 million in 2017 to 3.4 million in 2018 while international passenger departures increased by 16.7 percent from 1.8 million in 2017 to 2.1 million in 2018. Similarly, the number of international passengers in transit increased by 7.7 per cent from 1.3 million in 2017 to 1.4 million in 2018.
Mumu, I’m not disputing the facts that your total air passenger is 12 million.
But what you did was compare Kenya international arrival, international departure and domestic figures with just Ghana international Arrival!!!
That ma why I accused you of cherrypicking , dumb mofo
rvp2018: 690,314 - domestic. Make no f. difference. The hobbits too poor to afford to fly. They like Nigeria trek all the way through Sahara to go pick tomatos in Italy.
Dude you need help bro, why post the 2018 figures and ignore the 2019??
President Buhari has approved the establishment of a Public Private Partnership styled Infrastructure company named Infra-Co with an initial seed capital of N1 Trillion. It is envisaged that, over time, the entity will grow to N15 Trillion in assets and capital.
Infra-Co will be one of the premier infrastructure finance entities in Africa and will be wholly dedicated to Nigeria’s infrastructure development. The entity has been developed with concept designs from the National Economic Council (NEC) and the Central Bank of Nigeria.
Jamestown123: One of Kenyans biggest YouTubers really can't get a enough of Lagos. My people, as we argue and trade words all day with our Kenyans brothers, please don't forget their pray one day is to live in Nigeria. They argue with you because they don't really know what to do. Even if it's New York City vs Nairobi Kenyans will still trade words and insults with New Yorkers. So please also enjoy yourself, dont take all those insults to heart, because they all know the truth.
rvp2018: Despite population difference - kenyans out-travel Nigerians. Maybe they need to count those who trek through the Sahara and take boats to Europe so Nigerian can catch up.
For example in 2018 Commercial passenger traffic by airport for the period 2014 to 2018 is presented in the table below. The total number of passengers handled increased by 16.8 percent from 10.1 million in 2017 to 11.8 million in 2018. Domestic and international passengers handled increased by 22.5 per cent and 13.1 per cent, respectively, in 2018. International passenger arrivals increased by 13.3 per cent from 3.0 million in 2017 to 3.4 million in 2018 while international passenger departures increased by 16.7 percent from 1.8 million in 2017 to 2.1 million in 2018. Similarly, the number of international passengers in transit increased by 7.7 per cent from 1.3 million in 2017 to 1.4 million in 2018.
Jamestown123: Who wants VW, when they are Benz, Lexus, Rolls-Royce and the other worthy cars. Get sense bro. Nigeria is not how the media make you believe it. Money dey choke person for naija.
Wuoche: Only 11m of Kenyans live in slums as compared to 123m Nigerians. Another thing is that who would want to go to Nigeria to use generator as a source of electricity? Who would want to go to Nigeria to see people pooing in the middle of the road? Who would want to go Nigeria to be abducted by Boko Haram? Who would want to go to Nigeria to walk in a slumish CBD? Who would want to go to Nigeria to see a lifeless President? Who would want to go to a country that her citizens are running away from? Who would want to go to the poverty Capital of the world? Please tell me, who would want to go to a country where she/he can be sacrificed anytime?
Story for the gods.
And yet we make more money from tourism than Kenya!!!
rvp2018: The moment you land in the airport - okay before you land - you'll see huge slums next to airport - okay you land - and you'll find airport without electricity -don't dare even go to the toilet - and then you'll probably drive for 3 hours in endless traffic - with people hooting like crazy - you'll probably need armed escort to your hotel - which will be running a generator - and the entire neigherbood will be full of generator noise - the garbage all over - it's nightmare. You wont catch any sleep with all the generators and mosquitos. The heat and humidity, the generator noise, the fear of being kidnapped or robbed, the horrific traffic jams with folks honking like crazies, human traffic all trying to hawk something to you including very small children. It's almost suicidal why one would want to visit such a place. It's almost like you're acting in horror movie.
The same for Ghana - it's why these people are mentally sick. You cannot maintain sanity in such enviroment.
rvp2018: So you've run from real estate to money. Which money - unless you have an oil well. Nigeria is a poor country. The poorest country in the world having overtaken India. Poverty Capital.
This is a country where VW set up an assembling plant - and they sold 32 UNITS per year!!!
They set up in little Rwanda - and Rwandese bought more than 1,000.
No we are not.
That was a sensational headline that has since been debunked by hard facts.
We are not the poorest country not by rate and not by numbers.
rvp2018: Their land holdings alone dwarf Dangote wealth. If you own 50,000 acres in Nairobi Metro and you sell each acre for even 0.5M dollars. That is 25B USD! Where is Dangote. That is just land alone.
“A billionaire in Edo, Michael Osime, has built a 6,000 bpd modular refinery in the state and about to commission it this quarter. It would produce 20% of Nigeria's diesel, 100 % of Nigeria's LPFO, and export naptha. Fed Govt gave him complete waiver on all the imported equipment.“
