Keyamo and Air Force Chief Unite for Aviation Safety
Following a fatal aircraft crash in Igbokoda, the Federal Government is taking steps to enhance safety in Nigeria's aviation sectors. Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, along with Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sunday Kelvin Aneke, agreed to create a joint framework focused on airworthiness, certification, training, and aviation safety.
This agreement was reached during Keyamo's condolence visit to Aneke. The proposed framework aims to foster technical cooperation between the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) and the Nigerian Air Force (NAF).
Keyamo emphasized the importance of collaboration, stating that aviation accidents impact both military and civilian sectors. He noted that the NAF relies on civil aviation infrastructure and proposed a formalized partnership to enhance safety measures.
The joint committee will oversee cooperation while respecting the mandates of both organizations, allowing for shared training programs and expertise.
