Medview Airline is planning to launch an initial public offering (IPO). Alhaji Muneer Bankole, Manag­ing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Medview Airline, said that Medview Airline may soon seek listing on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Ex­change (NSE). Getting listed on the floor of the NSE is part of efforts by the airline to boost its capital base, acquire more fleet and hire more personnel as it seeks to expand its international commercial flight operations into the Middle East cities of Tel Aviv, Israel; Jedda, Saudi Arabia; Dubai, UAE and Singapore.

Bankole said that discussions had advanced with officials of the NSE to get the carrier listed on the ex­change and also enable more Nigerians take up equity in it.
