BREAKING: Another Airline, First Nation Suspends Operations by gateleo(m): 4:04pm On Sep 01, 2016
Another domestic carrier, First Nation Airlines, has suspended its operations, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority has said.

This is coming in less than 24 hours after Aero Contractors Airlines, Nigeria’s second largest commercial carrier, announced an indefinite suspension of its scheduled flight services and its staff with effect from Thursday, September 1, 2016.

The Director-General of the NCAA, Capt. Muhtar Usman, explained that the decision was taken in order to ensure that the airline carried out the required maintenance of its aircraft.

Usman, however, refuted claims that some of the domestic airlines were winding down their operations regardless of the fact that they had suspended flight services.

In a statement issued by the NCAA on Thursday and signed by its DG, it said, “The First Nation Airlines on its part is in the middle of an Engine Replacement Programme for one of its aircrafts. Another aircraft is due for mandatory maintenance as allowed by the regulatory authority.

“In these circumstances, these airlines clearly cannot continue to undertake schedule operations, hence the inevitable recourse to self regulatory suspension.”

Usman insisted that the domestic carriers had not wound down their operations, but were “merely suspending their operations temporarily to enable them undertake certain operational overhaul and strengthen their overall operational outlay.”

Fellow Nigerians including zombies, it time to simultaneously halt this ludicrous lugubrious hullabaloo of a government and push them into an ephemeral hibernation! I have read and strictly followed this government with acatalectic disgust. It's time to checkmate their odouriferous excesses and put an end to this machiavellian cabals

If you have any opportunity of traveling outside our shores (EG Uk, US, Canada, Scandinavian countries, Aussie, etc) grab the it with both hands and feet.

This is the time to really call on God to have mercy on Nigeria. We desperately need divine intervention
