Nigeria's leading carrier, Air Peace, has brought in a B737-800NG to help sustain its expansion, domestic and regional operations. The aircraft arrived the Murtala Mohammed International Airport at about 20.00hrs yesterday (Thursday) from Europe.

Disclosing this to newsmen yesterday, a Corporate Communications Executive of the airline, Mr. Stanley Olisa, stated that the new arrival is a 160 seater aircraft comprising 16 Business Class seats and 144 economy class seats. He said, "We are very glad to announce the acquisition of another aircraft, which is a 160-seater B737-800 New Generation aircraft".

He reiterated the resolve of the airline to spread its operations across the length and breadth of this country to ease the burden of travel within the country and the West African sub region.

Air Peace, West and Central Africa's largest airline, last year became the first airline in sub Saharan Africa to place a firm order for 10 B737 Max. The airline earlier this year made an order for 20 brand new 124 seater E195-E2 jets from Embraer thereby making history as the launch customer of this new aircraft in the entire Africa.

It would be recalled that Air Peace, 2017, became the first airline to acquire and register a Boeing 777 in Nigeria. It had gone on to acquire more three 777s for its international operations which it kick started on July 5, 2019, with flight operations to Dubai through the Sharjah International Airport. The airline is poised to take, very soon, on more international routes like, London, Houston, Johannesburg, Bombay, Guangzhou, etc.

The airline thanked Mr. President for creating the enabling aviation environment that made it possible for the airline to achieve this feat within a very short time of its existence. Mr. Olisa disclosed this when he said, "our Chairman, Mr. Allen Onyema, is eternally grateful to President Buhari for making it possible for Air Peace to become what she is within the four years of President Buhari's regime through the zero tax regime on imported commercial aircraft and aircraft spares introduced by his administration".

you wanted to salute someone and you are using a smiling Nigerian police, don't you know that the smile goes with egunje, boys scout or school pupils would have been better, or even a drunk, with this smile nothing goes for nothing.

Before this man founded air peace no one knew how rich he was

Funny thing is there are 100s like him all over Igbo land ...our governors need to work to attract this people ....3 billion dollars can link all south east cities with rail ....sale this ideas to men let them buy into that dream

Raising that money in 5 years is nothing 10 people can do that with states also having shares

We need to learn how to tap our human resources its worth far more than oil or any natural resources

Lol was the environment not there before buhari came in

The region with the most frequent fliers, where locals have opened their own airline and built their own airport, does not have a functioning airport. Nigeria is a curse.

Igbo people Sabi business jarey.. Argue with your forefathers

Thankfully not the 737 MAX
