FG Begs Aviation Unions Over Planned Protest

The Federal Government has appealed to aviation unions to shelve their plans for a protest over the deduction of 50  per cent of the internal revenue of aviation agencies. 

The appeal was made by the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development Festus Keyamo.

Keyamo in a statement he signed on Friday, said the workers concerns regarding the negative impact the deductions have on investment, maintenance of critical infrastructure, and overall operations of the agencies, have been duly noted.

He assured the workers’ unions and other stakeholders in the sector that President Bola Tinubu is “very concerned about the improvement of the Aviation sector and will give their demands due consideration with the goal of finding a lasting solution that balances both the fiscal needs of the government and the operational requirements of the Aviation Agencies”.
