The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has led the nation’s delegation to meet with aviation chiefs worldwide at the International Civil Aviation Negotiation event 2025 held in the Dominican Republic.
The minister noted that Nigeria was at the event to engage in meaningful negotiations in favour of the country’s aviation and to demonstrate its growing influence in global aviation diplomacy.
This was contained in a statement by Tunde Moshood, the Special Adviser on Media and Communications to the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, on Wednesday.
According to the statement, the annual ICAN meeting, convened by the International Civil Aviation Organisation, is the world’s largest platform for bilateral and multilateral air services negotiations, from November 10th to 14th.
The Nigerian aviation industry is at a relaunch period where operators and handlers of the industry are beginning to capitalise on the trust recently gained from stakeholders and lessors globally.
Having signed the Cape Town Convention, the first dry-leased aircraft arrived in the country last week as world leaders began to show interest in doing business with Nigerian aviation operators.
