![]() The Federal Government of Nigeria on Thursday took delivery of a $8.5m (₦3.1 Billion) calibration aircraft that will serve in the calibration of navigational aids across Nigerian airports. According to the Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, who tweeted the development via his official Twitter handle, the aircraft would help make Nigeria’s airspace safer. He said : “Just received new calibration aircraft for the country. (The) make is King Air 350i. Cost is $8.5m. The minister also added that : “The purpose of this aircraft is to calibrate our equipment and aids in the country for the purpose of flight operations. We used to have one in Nigeria but for the last two decades, we never had one.” Sirika said what informed the government to procure the aircraft was that when it was reconstructing the Abuja airport runway, there was the need recalibrate all the landing aids at the time, which was actually the requirement. “This is to ensure they are working in perfect order,” He, however, noted that at that time Nigeria did not have the capability as a country. https://autojosh.com/federal-government-takes-delivery-of-n3-1-billion-calibration-aircraft/ 16 Likes 4 Shares |

“The purpose of this aircraft is to calibrate our equipment and aids in the country for the purpose of flight operations. We used to have one in Nigeria but for the last two decades, we never had one.”For dunderheads who will soon start barking like rabbid dogs without the slimmest knowledge of this newly acquired equipment. According to the report, the calibrating services of this equipment used to be contracted to SA at a whopping cost of $500k every 6 months, wtf. And to think the thought of acquiring this equipment after over 2 decades of lacking same never occurred to previous successive administrations speaks volumes of how "they really cared" for the self sufficiency of this country. Of course they wouldn't since perhaps the aviation ministers criminally enrich themselves through those lapses. Imagine, $8.5m, they refused to buy despite the huge revenue and depleted foreign reserves. Sons of dogs whose future were being eaten up by those past leaders will still not hesitate to show buhari the full length of their tongues on this account. Smh. God bless President Muhammadu Buhari God bless Nigeria and Nigerians. 148 Likes 23 Shares |
