Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo , during a tour of MMIA, Lagos, yesterday, Thursday, August 31, 2023.The Federal Government said the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority will conduct a comprehensive audit of all local airlines.
Recall that Keyamo had come under criticism in the last 24 hours over what some civil aviation players called “external interference” in the autonomy of the NCAA. The suspension of Dana Air was enforced 24 hours after one of the airlines’ planes skidded off the runway at Lagos airport. “Would Nigerians have preferred that I keep quiet and be part of the cartel, all in the name of I am not supposed to interfere? What am I doing as minister?” he said.
