The Federal Government has imposed a luxury
tax on private jet owners and operators in the country.
As a result, the Nigeria Civil Aviation
Authority has directed the owners and operators of private jets to pay the sum
of $4,000 for every flight departure within the country.
According to a memo to all private jet
operators, the NCAA ordered that Nigerian-registered private jets would
henceforth pay the sum of $3,000 for every departure, while foreign registered
private jets would pay $4,000 per departure.
