Nigeria Airways Flight Attendant

Nigeria Airways was founded in 1958 and ceased operations in  2003. In 1981, Nigeria Airways was Africa's fastest growing airline serving an estimated 46 destinations in 4 continents including North America and South America. Like everything else in the country, everything that could go wrong did go wrong in Nigeria and the airline too was dissolved. Nigeria has been unable to build anything else close to Nigeria Airways which was quite something in its heydays. Here is a photo of a Nigerian Airways stewardess in 1962. As the photo clearly shows, things were still looking good and people were optimistic. The calm before the storm as it turned out.
