A Nigerian government body has proposed merging two of the country’s ailing airlines into a new national carrier, according to media reports from the country.

Nigerian carrier Arik Air has had a grounding order on several of its aircraft lifted, following the resolution of a court case.

Prior to the grounding, Arik Air was the fourth-largest provider of domestic capacity in Nigeria with a 7.6% share of the market.
