Festus Keyamo, minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, has sought partnerships with major global Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to upgrade and modernise Nigeria’s aviation infrastructure.
According to a statement signed by Tunde Moshood, special adviser on Media and Communications to the minister, Keyamo made the call during high-level engagements with major OEMs and aviation stakeholders at the second edition of the El Alamein International Airshow in Egypt.
The statement said the engagements provided Nigeria with an opportunity to explore practical areas of collaboration with leading players in the global aviation industry, particularly on upgrading aviation infrastructure across the country.
“The occasion afforded us the opportunity to meet major OEMs from around the world and engage in discussions regarding upgrading our aviation infrastructure across the country.
“These engagements are important as we continue to position Nigeria’s aviation industry for greater efficiency, safety, competitiveness and sustainable growth,” Keyamo said.
