900k two people in a night and only one person gets to eat breakfast..Nigerian tourism is a crime scene.

Zero commercial plane crashes in last 10 years.
SIXTEEN military plane crashes in last 10 years

After back to back commercial plane crashes in the early/mid 2000s, OBJ set the NCAA straight with crazy reforms & it has since reflected in the numbers.

The Military is exempt from NCAA regulations (ngl I get why) and this is also reflecting in the numbers.

In aviation, corruption & complacency are recipes for disaster.

Moral Of The Story: this won’t stop until sweeping reforms are made in whatever bodies that oversee our military’s aviation.

“I’m a driver and I sleep under this bridge everyday. I drive a big man in Lagos here, a Lexus,he knows I live under this bridge but he doesn’t care. Politicians only need us during elections like this, after the election,they abandon us. We’re suffering but I’ll vote Tinubu”

No matter how many videos I do about Nigeria, I know our tourism is never gonna be taken seriously.

It feels like pouring water into a basket at this point, and that's the sad reality I have chosen to accept. I've been telling these stories for the past 8 years.

Zero changes.

“I’ve never seen a country with a higher rate of dvmb citizens like Nigeria. A country where good roads are treated as luxury, where people with steady electricity are classified as the rich. A country where the price of goods can jump from 10k to 100k overnight with no questions asked and you call that a country?”

My day has been disrupted.

We cannot continue to excuse and ignore the irresponsibility and crass impunity of @flyairpeace in this country.

Mr Allen Onyema possibly believes that because he has the largest fleet of aircraft, and his company occasionally intervenes in the repatriation of stranded Nigerians aboard, that gives him the latitude to take passengers for granted endlessly.

I am scheduled to appear in court in Enugu State this morning for a case that is slated for definite hearing.

I woke up by 4:30 AM and got to MM1 at about 5:50AM hoping to join the 6:45 AM flight with Air Peace. I already checked in last night.

I became suspicious when Air Peace called for only passengers who were supposed to fly to Enugu and Owerri yesterday, while passengers scheduled to depart today were asked to wait.

Apparently, they cancelled yesterday’s flight to Enugu.

Air Peace kept us on the line for about an hour before their staff came and casually told us that the flight has been delayed till 4:50 PM.

At 2:01 AM today, Air Peace sent a second reminder to passengers, despite knowing that the flight was not going to depart as scheduled.

It is sickening that this airline has persisted in its poor service delivery despite routine complaints by passengers.

The regulators of the aviation industry are complicit in the impunity of Air Peace.

The Minister of Aviation, @fkeyamo, has been doing PR for this airline instead of holding them accountable.

@NigeriaCAA and @FAAN_Official have demonstrated that they’re incapable of tackling the arrogance of this airline.

My client’s fate is now uncertain because of the irresponsibility of Air Peace. I met two learned colleagues who were equally billed to travel on the same flight. One of them also has a hearing this morning in Enugu.

Unfortunately , the two other airlines that fly to Enugu from Lagos (United Nigeria and Enugu Air) only have afternoon flights today.

I lost sound sleep, wasted my resources on flights and taxis (by the way, I already booked my return flight with United Nigeria slated for 3:20 PM today), and I am going to miss a sensitive court appearance.

Official data published few ago by NCAA revealed that Air Peace delayed 71% of its flights in August 2026.

According to NCAA, Air Peace recorded 1,330 delays out of 1,864 flights, representing about 71 percent.

No sanctions were imposed.

No country that is serious about economic development will condone such ineptitude.

A Nigerian uses 15m - 17m to clear a 40ft container, while the Chinese uses less than 5m all in the name of free trade zone to clear their containers. Please tell me why their items won’t be cheaper???

This interview is over 2 years ago. Even though the headline is misleading, The points I made are still valid. Forget about the threats.
My issue with us as Nigerians is how we move on quickly. We complain and move on. There is nothing I will say now that I haven’t already said hundred times over. Until we as a people are ready to fight for what is ours, saying the same thing over and over again is just TIRING.

Bye again. Love you. Kisses… ✌🏾

My biggest fear for Nigeria is no longer how bad things are.

It is that the Nigerians who have never known anything better are becoming the majority.

They have no memory of what functional looks like. No reference point for what they should expect.

And you cannot demand a standard you don’t even know exists.
