 FG suspends Air Nigeria project indefinitely amidst identity concerns


In a significant turn of events, the Federal Government has taken the decision to suspend the Air Nigeria Airline project indefinitely.


This announcement came from the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace, Festus Keyamo, during a Ministerial briefing held to commemorate the first year of the Tinubu administration.


Keyamo revealed that the decision to suspend the project stemmed from the realization that the airline was not truly a Nigerian entity, but rather an attempt to disguise a foreign airline as a national carrier.


This revelation underscores the government’s perceived commitment to transparency and the protection of Nigeria’s aviation interests.


The suspension of the Air Nigeria project marks a critical development in the nation’s aviation sector and reflects the government’s determination to prioritize the establishment of genuine and sustainable aviation solutions for the country.
