Aviation Minister Festus Keyamo

Aviation Minister Festus Keyamo says the Federal Government has shelved plans for a national carrier, shifting focus to boosting local airlines. Speaking in Lagos, he also revealed plans to demolish and rebuild the dilapidated old terminal of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport.

Keyamo cited revised policies, including changes to aircraft leasing insurance, aimed at lowering domestic airfare and strengthening local operators. He also confirmed foreign airlines now patronize local in-flight caterers.

FAAN MD Olubunmi Kuku noted that Nigeria’s aviation sector now has 39 certified airlines, 31 airports, and over 2,100 licensed pilots, contributing $1.7 billion to GDP.
