The site handover represents a critical step in the implementation of a landmark aviation infrastructure project under the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, aimed at transforming Nigeria’s airspace management system to globally accepted standards in line with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) mandates.
