Virgin Nigeria Changes Name, Seeks Fresh Capital

AGOS, Sept 17 (Reuters) - Virgin Nigeria said on Thursday it was changing its name to Nigerian Eagle Airlines, further cutting ties with founder Virgin Atlantic [VA.UL], and was in talks with international investors to raise fresh capital.

The airline, which last month signed a technical partnership with Ethiopian Airlines [ETHA.UL], is also planning a private placement within the next six weeks, Managing Director Dapo Olumide told a news conference in Lagos.
