Nigeria’s Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has appointed new directors to lead several major civil aviation agencies, just one week after the federal government dismissed previous directors and chief executives.

The appointments come as part of President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope agenda, according to ministry spokesperson Odutayo Oluseyi. New directors have been installed at the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet), Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA), Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) and the Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB).

All incoming directors have been instructed to immediately collect appointment letters from the ministry’s Human Resources Department.

In addition, a new Cargo Services Directorate has been established within FAAN to address longstanding issues in the air cargo sector.

The newly appointed directors are as follows:
