Contractual obligations with  lessors intact, says Air Peace  

Air Peace said  it is keeping to the terms of its contractual obligations to  its aircraft lessors warranting any blacklist of any sort.
The carrier said reports suggesting breaches of leasing contracts by  Nigerian carriers with aircraft lessors has nothing to do with the airline, as it has never dry - leased any airplane since inception in 2014.
In a statement yesterday the carrier said since it never dry- leased any airplane, it could not have breached  a non-existent contract let alone being  blacklisted by any lessor. 
The statement reads : " We have never breached any contractual obligations.
 Our financial dealings have always been conducted with utmost integrity and transparency, with no breaches of payment terms.
"Our operations remain robust and compliant with all relevant regulatory and industry standards. Air Peace is committed to maintaining excellent service and operational efficiency, setting a benchmark in the West African aviation sector.
"The airline’s visionary goal is to be ever dependable through the creation of seamless connections and network options for its extensive domestic, regional, and international markets.
"The heartbeat of Air Peace’s success lies in its strategic approach to fleet modernization and route expansion.'
In 2021, the airline achieved a milestone by becoming the launch customer for the groundbreaking 124-seater Embraer 195-E2 aircraft in Africa.
This marked the delivery of the first five units as part of a 2018 firm order for 13 E195s, with additional orders for Boeing 737 MAX 8 and 737 MAX 10 aircraft, signalling a phased transition from the existing Boeing 737 fleet.
Elevating its fleet modernization, Air Peace recently inked a significant deal-a firm order for five Embraer 175 aircraft, accompanied by plans for a local maintenance facility supported by Embraer.
The airline has consistently maintained a clean safety record in all its operations.

    NCAA blasts Aviation Elders on spurious claims bordering on  Najomo's confirmation  The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has  berated the shadow chasing efforts of a so - called industry group :  Aviation Elders (AE) , which has embarked on a sinister move to thwart efforts by the Federal Government to confirm the appointment of Captain Chris Najomo as the substantive  Director General of the apex aviation regulatory body. In a move aimed at mudslinging, Aviation Elders accused  Najomo of handling safety matters with levity. Aviation Elders  accused Najomo of trivializing the sector by allegedly announcing his confirmation by himself in a video when the National Assembly has not done so. Though the NCAA would have ignored the group with its sinister agenda, but is constrained to set the records straight. NCAA's Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Mr Michael Achimugu has  countered all the allegations saying the...
