Arik Air announce to orders 2 unidentified 747-8I. It will expecting to delivery sometime in between 2013 or 2014 timeline.

While I would like to see W3 build up a great fleet with 748's, I just don't see them taking delivery of these aircraft. They already cancelled a more sensible order of 773's.
