At last, the national carrier, “Nigeria Air”, promised by the outgoing President Muhammadu Buhari administration about two years ago, has finally arrived in Abuja.

The airline is coming at about 70 hours to the end of the administration.

In a tweet, the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace, Sen. Hadi Abubakar Sirika, said on Friday that the journey was “very long, tedious, daunting and difficult.”
