In what appears an act of profligacy, the Akwa Ibom State Governor, Godswill Akpabio, is said to have spent over N2.3 billion on aircraft charter between 2009 and 2011.

PREMIUM TIMES investigations showed that Mr. Akpabio signed a charter deal with Vista Jet, a Swiss Airline Holding Company in 2009. The state’s Commissioner for Information, Aniekan Umana, however said the jet was hired based on Governor Akpabio’s need.

Founded in 2004 by Thomas Flohr, Vista Jet has operations in Nigeria and six other countries – the United Kingdom, UK; United Arab Emirate, UAE; China, Malaysia, Austria and Switzerland. It is one of the world’s premier luxury private jet charter firms flying clients between any two points on a pay-as-you-go fare structure, like a taxi company.
