The Managing Director of the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA), Engr. Farouk Ahmed Umar (Danmajen Gwandu, Gamjin Kabi), is set to deliver key insights at the inaugural Nigeria International Airshow, where he will speak on advancing aviation safety, sustainability, and modern airspace technologies. His presentation will spotlight NAMA’s strategic initiatives aimed at strengthening air navigation services, enhancing surveillance capabilities, and deploying cutting-edge systems to support safer and more efficient flight operations across the region.

This landmark event—scheduled for December 2nd - 4th, 2025, at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja—marks a historic moment for the nation. The Nigeria International Airshow is the first of its kind ever to be organized in the country, made possible through the visionary leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR. His bold reforms, unwavering commitment to innovation, and national development agenda continue to elevate Nigeria’s global presence and create an enabling environment for transformative achievements in the aviation and aerospace sector.

The Honourable Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, SAN, also deserves profound commendation for his exceptional dedication and strategic leadership. His reform-driven approach, consistent stakeholder engagement, and results-oriented actions have revitalized the aviation industry and set it on a clear path toward global competitiveness. The successful planning and realization of this pioneering Airshow stand as a testament to his foresight, passion, and commitment to laying a strong foundation for a modern, efficient, and future-ready aviation ecosystem.

As Nigeria prepares to host aviation leaders, innovators, and investors from around the world, the Nigeria International Airshow symbolizes a new era of collaboration, excellence, and national pride. With the collective efforts of the Federal Government, the Aviation Ministry, NAMA, and key partners, this event will not only showcase the nation’s growing strength in aviation but also inspire long-term partnerships and innovative opportunities across the continent. The Airshow marks the beginning of a bold new chapter for Nigeria—one defined by progress, ambition, and the unwavering determination to soar to greater heights.
