My people, e be like say Air Peace don knack e own side of di story wey dey fly around concerning dia Lagos-São Paulo flight matter. Dem don heed allegations wey say dem and President Bola Tinubu dey play style to mislead Nigerians about di direct flight wey dem wan start.
According to di airline spokesperson, Osifo-Whiskey Efe, dem no do any scam or trick anybody. Dem carry matter go press wey make dem know say di process to start dis route dey ongoing and e follow di aviation rules. No be sey dem just dey play giddem! Di online media wey carry dis gist no get any fact to back am up, dem just wan spoil Air Peace name.
Dem even talk sey di Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) wey Nigeria and Brazil sign no mean sey flight go start tomorrow. Na just statement of intent dey inside, no be launching pad for flight o! So, make we clear am, no tickets don sell and no booking platform don open. How person go complain sey dem dey stranded when no flight don even land?
As dem yarn dem, di agreement wey dem sign for Brasília in August 2025 no mean sey flight dey operate. Na just like say dem don use paper talk sey we wan collect greater opportunities for air travel, but e no be guarantee sey all go work in one day. Dem dey push for clearances, approvals, and all di wahala wey dey follow international flights.
Air Peace talk say dem get enough aircraft wey fit handle di route, with four Boeing 777-200/300 ready to carry passengers when all di approvals don finish. Dem dеy use two for London routes now, while di oda two dey standby for any long-haul waka wey fit come.
Dem still add sey dem no fit control di international airfare wahala. Na so di aviation sector be. So make nobody dey point finger say na dem dey cause high fares just because of di MoU.
Dem warn sey all dis talk wey dey come from some corners be like pressure tactics wey fit just be blackmail from people wey get ulterior motives. Air Peace dey beg make we no let media wahala spoil di chances of Nigerian businesses from blossom. Na we get di airline, and na we for benefit if e run well!
