Allen Onyema, the Chairman of Air Peace, has urged Nigerians to think about pulling their investments from South Africa due to ongoing xenophobic attacks against African migrants. His call comes in light of repeated incidents that have raised concerns about the safety of Nigerians and other Africans in South Africa.

Aviation stakeholders in Nigeria have expressed worries regarding the growing number of state-owned airlines, cautioning that many of these ventures could face economic unsustainability due to escalating operational costs and inadequate aviation infrastructure. The concerns highlight the challenges facing the aviation sector in the country.

According to Onyema, Nigerian airlines are increasingly reliant on bank loans due to rising fuel costs. This statement follows the recent announcement by Dangote Petroleum Refinery, which reduced the price of aviation fuel (Jet A1) to N1,450 per litre. The situation underscores the ongoing challenges faced by domestic airlines in Nigeria amid fluctuating fuel prices.

Nigerians in South Africa protested at the Nigerian High Commission in Pretoria over delays in repatriation flights for citizens wishing to return home. This demonstration occurred after the federal government initiated the evacuation process amid rising concerns about xenophobic attacks, with a deadline set for June 30, according to African Examiner.

Senior policymakers and tax experts are gathering in South Africa this week to discuss the future of international tax policy, with a focus on Africa's increasing role in global tax reform. The discussions are part of the UN Tax Convention talks, which aim to address key issues in international taxation.

Festus Keyamo, the current Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development in Nigeria, has pledged to review the more than 100 Bilateral Air Service Agreements (BASAs) that Nigeria has established with other countries. This initiative raises questions about reciprocity in these agreements, as highlighted in a recent article by Tribune Online.
