President Muhammadu Buhari has given the order for the reduction of the number of aircrafts in his presidential fleet.
Spokesperson to the president on Media & Publicity, Garba Shehu, made this known on Thursday Sept 8, 2016 evening.
He said: "There is a govt committee already in place, working to reduce the number of aircraft in the presidential fleet."
"Some aircraft will be boarded, some others returned to the Air Force for operations. The Change is here."
Critics of Buhari say the government has not done enough to end Nigeria's worst economic crisis for decades.
Many state governors are not paying salaries and tens of thousands of workers have been laid off, while companies across sectors say they cannot get enough hard currency to import spare parts or raw materials.
