Capt.Chris Najomo,Director General NCAA

The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) is aware of the ongoing industrial action by aviation unions and its impact on passengers and other stakeholders.

The NCAA appeals to the unions to sheathe their swords and exercise restraint pending the return of the Honourable Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Mr. Festus Keyamo, SAN, who has been actively working towards resolving the issues.

The matter would have been addressed at the meeting convened by the Honourable Minister last week, but the meeting could not hold as the airline operators failed to honor the invitation.

The NCAA assures the travelling public that flight safety remains uncompromised and that the Authority continues to exercise its statutory safety oversight responsibilities.

We appeal to all parties to embrace dialogue and cooperation. We are confident that the matter will be resolved shortly and normal flight operations will resume as soon as practicable.

The Director General of the Agency, Captain Chris Najomo stated that NCAA regrets the inconvenience caused to passengers and appreciates their patience and understanding.
