The Federal Government on Thursday took over Arik Airlines and announced the appointment of a new management in a bid to save the country’s aviation industry from total collapse. Under the new arrangement, Roy Ilegbodu, a veteran aviation expert, has been named to take over the management of the airline under the receivership of Oluseye Opasanya, a senior advocate of Nigeria. Besides, the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria, AMCON, said the government would give a lifeline to support the financially-distressed Arik Airlines continue as a going concern in the aviation industry. AMCON spokesperson, Jude Nwauzor, said the government’s decision to intervene clearly underscores a commitment to instill sanity in the country’ aviation sector to prevent a major catastrophe in the country. “The development will afford Arik Airlines, which is the largest local carrier in the country, to go back to regular and undisrupted operations, avoid job losses, protect investors and stakeholder funds as well as ensure safety and stability in the already challenged aviation sector,” Mr. Nwauzor said. Arik, which controls about 55 per cent of the country’s passenger traffic, has for some time faced threat of liquidation as a result of heavy financial debt burden, weak corporate governance, operational difficulties, bad management and inability to pay staff regularly. Apart from backlog of accumulated staff salaries, AMCON said the airline has the most demotivated workforce in the sector, while being in constant default in its lease payments and insurance, resulting in aircraft getting confiscated by lessors. Besides, the airline has been operating extremely erratic schedules not good for a strategic carrier, with its flights routinely either delayed or cancelled without explanations to customers. Other corporate issues, which have eroded Arik brand reputation include negligence of operational regulations, luggage pilfering or outright disappearances, poor corporate governance, and disregard for safety procedures. The Minister of State for Aviation, Hadi Sirika, said the government’s decision to take over the management of Arik Airlines would stabilise its operations, enhance its long term economic value, revitalise its ailing operations, and sustain safety standards, in view of its pivotal role in the Nigerian aviation sector. The Minister pledged the support of the Federal Ministry of Aviation for the new management to make Arik remain a strategic carrier, saying the intervention was in the best interest of the general public, workers, creditors and other aviation interest groups. “All necessary steps have been taken to ensure that there would be no undue disruption on Arik’s regular business operations or activities of other stakeholders, on account of the recent changes in the leadership and management of Arik Airline,” the minister said. Meanwhile, the new management of the airline has assured both the staff and other interest groups that it would work to add value to its operations, improve customer experience, and sustain the safety, reliable and secure operational history it was known. Prior to the takeover, operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Wednesday, stormed the head office of the airline, to meet with its Chairman, Joseph Arumemi-Ikhide. http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/223041-update-nigerian-govt-takes-over-distressed-arik-airline-gives-lifeline.html |

mummy3:One thing I have discovered in life is that most people equate themselves with others. Mummy3 for the fact that you are sleeping with your boss does not mean that every other person is doing it. Secretaries are professionals who know how to handle situations diplomatically without causing frictions. This does not mean that we do not have bad eggs among them. 1 Like |

Call diverts to other lines are charged. Here, the person making the call is charged as well as the diverted line. The only divert that is free is divert to the voicemail. |

brianromel: I am wondering the source of your statistics. MTN remains the number one network in Nigeria in terms of spread, network quality, coverage, number of customers and even earnings. |

Hmmm! Different strokes for different people. This issue can be resolved. It's purely a network problem. Pls contact mtn letting them know your exact location. I know you wont be willing to do that here. |

I feel your pain. I know Mtn is well structured to take care of such unfortunate situation. Compensation and refund is possible if you lodge ur complaints appropriately - I hv received this severally. You can contact them through the customer care number 180 or through email. [i] |

Happy link is part of MTN new Value Proposition Package. The link packages have unique value propositions. The present xtra values (xtraconnect inclusive) will be colapsed in due course. |

Two days is too small, Let us switch off our phones for six months. I am sure that will do the needed magic. Allow the networks be o jare! If we get other sectors of the economy right by encouraging investors, the better it would be for our country. Let's encourage more investors through libralization of our economy. Only then will competition and the interactions of the forces of demand and supply force the prices of services, products and commodities down. I rest my case. |

I'm just wondering why an average Nigeria likes 'awuf'. Una for say make all the networks no dey charge for calls and their other services. We seem to forget easily that we are in a capitalist economy. |

This man is certainly fake. From all the information you have given about him; he has nothing to offer you. You may begin to pick your pieces and start a new. He is not processing any divorce and he is not willing to do so in the near future or ever. Please wakeup to reality. |

"Check Engine" may spell so many things. It could be an engine problem or an electrical problem. We may not be able to proffer the best solution to your problems via this medium. Everybody is going to make suggestions based on what he feels. And don't forget that some other people will use this opportunity to advertise any kind of product in the name of trying to resolve your problem. I think the first thing you need to do is to take the car to a good electrician ("rewire" in local palance) for him to look at it. When I bought my Camry 2000 model it had the same problem. I complained to the car dealer who informed me that it was going to be ok after cleaning the battery head. That I did but the problem was not resolved. I had to take the car to an electrician (rewire) who discovered that it was an electrical problem and it was resolved there and then. Guess how much I spent? N1,500.00. It's after you have exhausted this possibility that you can try a good mechanic. The problem we have here is that we use trial and error method as most of our mechanics and technicians do not have the knowledge and experience to work on modern cars. |

It is absolutely necessary to carry out the necessary test before marriage or any serious relationship. Asking your partner questions about her health status is not enough. Both of you should go to the lab together. If you are wiser and have had reckless sexual behaviour in the past, the best you can do is to secretly go for the test and confirm your status before requesting your partner to accompany you. Don't it (unprotected) if you have not done that test!!!!!!! |

Austine, There is need to cater for your son. But before you do that, it is my candid advise that you get a real wife. Somebody to love and cherish and who will do likewise. This advice stems from the fact that your former wife intends to come back and will stop at nothing until she does that. If you replace her; then there will not be any room for you to think of taking her back. Please brother, get a wife first before thinking of taking your son back. 1 Like |

There is nothing wrong with midnight calls if it's done once in a while. Receiving calls from the same guy on a number of occasion and the text message leaves more to be desired. Since you have discussed with your wife and she claimed that the person is a 'friend'; kindly take her word. Trust is paramount in a relationship. However, please don't trust blindly. You can have a heart to heart discussion with your wife and tell her how much you dislike such calls and I believe if she is sensible and doesn't truly have anything to do with the guy, she will desist from making/receiving mid night calls. |

The problem is that some people argue just for the mere fact that they want to argue not because they possess superior knowledge. However, issues bothering on the Catholic Church can "never" be explained any better to some people because they already have a mindset. For such people no amount of explanation will make them change their minds about their opinions. |

Lady, I must say that I appreciate the way you do justice to most of the issues raised so far. It simply proves that you are living the faith. Please keep it up. |

Can somebody tell me if we glorify God with all these arguments? From the ongoing, nobody seem to be interested in any other person's line of reasoning. Everybody holds firm to his believe and nobody is willing to shift grounds. |

If truly you don't want to have any sexual relationship with this lady, the best you can do is to avoid her completely. |

Isn't it funny the way we talk about God, bible and the interpretation of the bible. From the foregoing, it simply shows that the people attacking the Catholic Church mode of confession are either ignorant of the bible or interprete the bible to suit themselves. May I state here that priests are the representatives of God and God has already granted them right to forgive sins. If you feel offended by this, I am sorry about it, but it doesn't change my believe. |
