    The Federal High Court sitting in Lagos on Monday has declared null and void the sale of a national carrier-Nigeria Air Ltd to Ethiopian Airlines.

    Justice Ambrose Lewis-Allagoa in his judgement stopping the sale, ordered that the proposed establishment of a national carrier, by the Federal Government, should not be carried out.

    The judge made the order while granting the reliefs sought by the plaintiffs, the Registered Trustees of the Airline Operators of Nigeria and five others in the aviation industry.

    Justice Lewis-Allagoa held that all the reliefs sought are granted except for the relief asking for ₦2bn as damages for the injury suffered by the Plaintiffs as a result of their wrongful exclusion and the wrongful action; unlawful bidding and selection processes for the Nigeria Air project.

    Listed as the 1st to 6th plaintiffs in the suit are the Registered Trustees of the Airline Operators, Azman Air Services Limited, Air Peace Limited, Max Air Limited, United Nigeria Airlines Company Limited and Topbrass Aviation Limited.
