Frankly speaking, some of the views expressed on this forum and bordering on being xenophobic and racist.
Nonsense!!! If an airline is starting up in the UK, imagine the outcry there would be if British nationals were indirectly being prevented from getting jobs in it. Even foreign companies company coming to invest in the UK employ majority British, that is how it is done world wide and so it should be.

"Oyinbo" is really a derogatory term for a Caucasian.
Another wrong statement. "Oyinbo" is an Urhoubo language(Niger delta) term for describing a person of lighter skin colour. Please please please, it is NOT a derogatory statement. I am mixed race and I get called that often. Bcos Nigerian broken english originated from the Niger Delta area, that was the term that became accepted as the way of describing people of lighter colour when speaking broken english.

Enough education and history for one day, lets please keep this thread to Virgin Nigeria related stuff
