See previous thread here: Emirates Suspends All Flights From Nigeria From September 1



IATA @IATA

IATA is disappointed that the amount of airline money blocked from repatriation by the #Nigerian government grew to $464 million in July. #blockedfunds

IATA’s many warnings that failure to restore timely repatriation will hurt Nigeria with reduced air connectivity are proving true with the withdrawal of @emirates from the market.

Airlines can’t be expected to fly if they can’t realize revenue from ticket sales. Loss of connectivity harms the economy, hurts investor confidence, impacts jobs and people’s lives.

The Government of Nigeria needs to prioritize the release funds before more damage is done.

To bad ooo

Naija reactor

Hmmm

It is well.

Gradually we are getting there...... I swear if Buhari leaves Aso Rock this country will know Abacha was a learner when it comes to looting

You can imagine how bad things are turning by the day..

What is wrong with this present government? Is this still incompetence or plain wickedness?

What did Nigerians do to deserve this?

2023 is another opportunity to try and right the wrongs going on. Things are getting worse by the day.

Vote wisely. Vote in leaders who are reasonable, responsible and passionate.

The average Nigerian don't even fly.
E no concern us.

It is finished

If you are a citizen of Nigeria and you're still proud of this country you should be lying to yourself,if you like in the next election, vote for your brother because you are from the same tribe as him and not because he is competent or well qualified  to do the job.
Believe me una never see anything,this na morning una still dey cry.

Buhari has singlehandedly destroyed Nigeria

It's shameful.

Ike gwuru.....

APC, breaking all existing bad records and setting the unwanted/uninspiring records left and right

You can’t even worry when you’re planning to have your own jet in the sky



That shyt gon be tight son

This is a really tough situation. Nigeria is blocking the repatriation of funds NOT because it wants to damage its reputation or deprive Emirates of its money, but we are really on strings now.

Every USD in the economy has to be scavenged and kept aside to finance importation - both of fuel and food.

Instead of insulting the government, Nigerians now need to be more patriotic in putting up a united front. For now, with the absence of Emirates and soon to be other international airlines, we should actively support our local airlines like Arik Air who are flying international routes and quickly launch Nigerian Air to complement them.

Emirates and by extension IATA should be patient and calm down. They will get their funds in due time, let's fix ourselves first.

Bad news be following Nigeria like flies follow shit ...spits

Buhari abeg Keep small something for Tinubu to campaign with nah


He's busy destroying everything concerning APC
