President Goodluck Jonathan has sent a letter of appreciation to the Chairman of Arik Air, Chief Johnson Arumemi-Ikhide, for providing the aircraft that brought the national football team, the Super Eagles, from South Africa after the African Cup of Nations 2013.

It would be recalled that the Super Eagles flew in to Abuja on Tuesday afternoon aboard a special Arik Air chartered flight.
