Ethiopian Airlines (ET ) has officially submitted a bid to partner Nigeria in setting up its national carrier .
Its Chief Executive Officer , Tewolde Gebremariam , said yesterday that it was in the forefront to manage the proposed Nigeria Air billed to commence operations on December 24 this year .
The Federal Government in London last month unveiled the name and logo of the new national carrier , indicating that it was seeking a strategic partner to invest up to $ 300 million on the airline .
Gebremariam , at a conference in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia , said : “ We are among a small group with an interest in establishing a national carrier ( in Nigeria )… we do not know the results ( of the tender) , though we are frontrunners .”
