Again, Nigeria Air misses sixth takeoff date as court case continues

Nigeria’s bid to establish a new national carrier has once again failed because airline operators are determined to get their way in court.

Nigeria Air was slated for launch this month(December) which was further reiterated by President Muhammadu Buhari, saying work had reached 91 percent.

However, a suit challenging the shareholding structure by the Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON) has again forced the government to shift the take-off to the first quarter of 2023.
