The management of Air Nigeria has announced the suspension of all its local, regional and international operations with effect from Monday, September 10, 2012. A statement from the airline said the suspension was largely due to staff disloyalty and environmental tension, “which are not conducive for business in the aviation sector.” The airline said it regretted any inconvenience the decision would cause its loyal passengers on all the routes and advised them to contact agents from whom they had purchased tickets for refunds.
The statement quoted the Chairman of the airline, Mr. Jimoh Ibrahim, as saying that it was difficult to continue further investment in the carrier with the high level of staff disloyalty and weak business environment. “But we are strongly committed to ensuring that Air Nigeria survives,” he added.
Ibrahim said about 50 loyal members of staff from various departments of the airline had been selected with a mandate to recommence business within 12 months, while the others had been relieved of their employment effective from the last day of work on their various routes.
