The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has stated that five Nigeria Airports are set for concession.
The Minister made this known while receiving the Regional Vice President Africa and Middle east of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) at the Ministry’s headquarters in Abuja.
He said the five International Airport for concession included Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, Murtala Muhammed International airport, Lagos, Port Harcourt International airport, Aminu Kano International Airport, and Akanu Ibiam International airport, Enugu and thanked the International Air Transport Association (IATA) for indicating interest to offer advisory role to Nigeria and for coming in at a crucial time the concessioning is about to take off.
The Minister said going by geographical location, Nigeria is the aviation hub for Africa and the world at large, hence the level of infrastructure decay within the aviation industry calls for urgent action.
He called on investors to avail themselves of the opportunity, stating that Nigeria’s aviation industry is ripe for both local and foreign investors.
