Space World International Airlines was a Nigerian Airline owned by Steven Adekunle[1] based out of Lagos and operated from 2003 to 2007,[1] it ceased operations due to the bad shape of the Nigerian Aviation sector during the 2000s, and the NCAA ordering the re-capitalization of airlines of anywhere between N20million to N500million. The cessation date was April 30, 2007.[2] The aircraft were in Saudi Arabia for a C Check completion before being bound to return to Nigeria.[1] Space World was also involved in some sort of an engine scandal when Space World agreed to procure an engine.[1]
