When I say that Buhari is a statist who understands nothing about economics or business, some people might think I'm being unfair. But what else can one take news like this for except as proof of the man's complete economic illiteracy and inability to learn from past failures?
So, when the entire country was busy waiting on Buhari to announce his cabinet, this hare-brained scheme was what he was busy occupying himself with? As if the atrocious history of Nigeria Airways wasn't enough of a lesson! God help Nigeria with leaders like this!
Nigeria has commenced discussions on partnerships towards establishing a national airline for the country, according to the Presidency.
The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, said this in a statement issued yesterday from Qatar where President Muhammadu Buhari is currently on a state visit.
He, however, did not provide details of the proposed national carrier.
The minister of state for aviation, Senator Hadi Sirika, had said in Abuja earlier this month that President Buhari had set up a committee for the establishment of a national carrier even before appointing his ministers.
