So flight that Carry's the big men but the buses that Carry's Nigerian populace will hold on, what a government. The much you people has looted is not enough

I don't understand this govt, a ban for interstate travel was placed for 4 weeks and flight will commence in 3 weeks time, is flight not an interstate travel?
