The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, said the government will probe the project reports of the suspended national carrier, Nigeria Air, and concession of airports.
He stated that the government was looking to uncover red flags relating to the projects before a decision is made following the announcement of the suspension on August 31.
Recall that the creation of Nigeria Air had resulted in court cases instituted by domestic airlines against Keyamo’s predecessor, Hadi Sirika, over allegations of bypassing aviation regulations and offering an unfair competitive advantage to Ethiopian Airlines to ensure the completion of the national carrier.
