“Private Jets, Including Oyedepo’s, Can’t Fly Without Government Clearance” – Keyamo

The Nigerian government has reaffirmed that private aircraft owned by prominent individuals, including Bishop David Oyedepo, founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide, cannot operate from private airstrips without proper clearance from relevant authorities.

This was stated by the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, during an interview on Channels Television on Sunday.

Keyamo’s clarification comes amidst discussions about the regulation of private airstrips, following a call by the House of Representatives approximately two months ago to revoke airstrip licenses granted to Bishop Oyedepo and other private individuals or organizations.

The lawmakers expressed concerns over national security, citing the alleged use of such facilities to smuggle illegal arms into the country by suspected sponsors of terrorism.

Explaining the government’s stance, Keyamo emphasized that strict protocols are in place to ensure that no aircraft or drone can operate in Nigerian airspace or land at private airstrips without thorough vetting.

He detailed the procedures required for any aircraft entering or leaving the country, underscoring the role of security and regulatory agencies in maintaining control.

“Every aircraft, regardless of its ownership, must adhere to international airport procedures,” Keyamo said.

“If a private jet is arriving in Nigeria, it must first land at an international airport, where agencies like Customs, Immigration, and the NDLEA will conduct thorough checks.

Only after this can the aircraft proceed to a private airstrip.”

Similarly, Keyamo explained the protocols for outbound flights.

“If you are flying out of Nigeria, you must start at an international airport.

Your plane will go through all the necessary clearances, including customs and immigration processes, before you are allowed to take off,” he added.

The minister stressed that at every stage of the process, authorities are involved in granting approvals to ensure that the system is not exploited for illicit activities.

“No private airstrip can be used for unauthorized purposes without the express permission of the authorities,” he noted.

This development highlights the government’s efforts to balance the privileges of private aviation with national security concerns.
