abnot: https://newswirengr.com/2020/08/03/breaking-air-peace-allegedly-sacks-most-of-its-pilots-over-pay-dispute/ You should read this to get a better picture.... at least it has mails attached for evidence. I didn't see any pleading, all I saw was a typical Nigerian businessman attitude...threatening to shutdown the airline instead of hashing out an issue with a professional workforce, Lying with reckless abandon (after deducting 30% of March salaries so he wouldn't sack anyone still went ahead to sack 15 people before this 69). When it was rumored last week or so that the pilots went on strike they issued a memo claiming it was the job of detractors..how come they are now admitting to it? They didn't pay their staff for 4 months but were busy doing giveaway on Instagram. I really loathe Nigerian companies 4 Likes |

Story, story. Everyrhing is Covid blamed but the truth is that with an ever disintegrating and sinking middle class the airline industry will be sucked into the abyss. Since OBJ signed the death warrant of Nigeria's middle class with the nationalisation policy of the late Murtala the avarage lifespan of any new airline is a decade. Air Peace is just on that cycle of ineviatable decline. Transport anywhere in the world is a mass market sector do I cannot see how any airline cayeeing for 1 percent of the population is expected to survive any economic shock whatsoever thoughless of making a profit. Bon Voyage Air Peace. Join the historical list of jet setters. 1 Like |

seunmsg:See link below for your answer. Where did the emergency loan Buhari borrowed from the IMF disappear to? Many countries have financial packages to support industries e.g. airlines, severely impacted by the pandemic, for paying workers salaries since these companies aren't making any money at the moment. All the taxes these companies pay to the federal government, where are they? The government was busy fooling people with audio palliatives... https://www.imf.org/en/News/Articles/2020/04/28/pr20191-nigeria-imf-executive-board-approves-emergency-support-to-address-covid-19 3 Likes |

sugah: Sugah this link is what I read before writing this. In march I never foresaw the lockdown extending beyond the announced two weeks. If your employer has a history of not owing you or cheating you and something like this happens give them a benefit of doubt. With the lockdowns and grounding for 4 months I don't need to see their financial statement to have an idea of how bad things are. I don't think anyone foresaw things getting this bad in march. Regarding the threat what I saw was an emotional response from a founder who began to believe some insider pilots were out there to frustrate the dream as they carried out a protest at the airport. The airline is still a start-up and too young to be having it's pilots openly protesting as that will drive away passengers and further plough the airline downwards. The airport terminals are empty as passenger traffic is picking up slowly. Not the best of times for everyone in the sector. If emirates can terminate thousands of contracts without blinking why can't pilots negotiate with their employers in line with the realities of today ? They were confident last week that they'd be able to come to a compromise which I believe engineered them to deny the pilots striking story that was out in the media. But as it turned out another disruption was planned for today and they were better off taking precautionary actions with the hope that the business climate will improve. 5 Likes |

They should tow the path of British Airway where all pilots accepted pay - cut, instead of sacking some |

abnot:The bolded is very incorrect. A pilots office is the cockpit and I gathered they needed a place to come together and discuss on a line of action to resolve the issue hence the carpark of the airport was chosen. (Insider source) While its common knowledge that the aviation industry worldwide and even Nigeria was badly affected by the coronavirus, they were the only airlines that were still flying during the lockdown with chartered and evacuation flights so how come they are the only ones that sacked pilots that have refused to risk their lives for a meagre 20% of their salaries? What I saw is an outburst of a proud man that believes he can get away with anything cos I don't see how a first reaction to an issue will be a threat to close down his own company..he obviously feels he is doing them a favor by running the airline but forgetting that an airline cannot survive without pilots and engineers. |
