Nigeria Can Become Africa’s Aviation Leader – Festus Keyamo

The Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo, says Nigeria has everything needed to lead Africa’s aviation industry.
Speaking on Channels Television, he explained that Nigeria’s large population and high air traffic make it the best place for aviation growth in Africa.
“Nigeria is the most promising country in Africa for aviation, with the largest population and traffic. It is the best country to become an aviation hub,” he said.
Although the country still has infrastructure problems, Keyamo said Nigeria must attract private investors to fix them. He also announced plans to hold Nigeria’s first airshow to bring in global investors and promote the aviation sector.
Keyamo also talked about issues at airports, like passengers being harassed by security officers. He said his ministry had reported these problems to the National Security Adviser, who has provided 1,000 body cameras to monitor security officers’ activities.
Keyamo believes these steps will improve Nigeria’s aviation sector and attract more investment.
