REP. IDEM ASSURES AVIATION MINISTER OF NATIONAL ASSEMBLY’S BACKING TO REPOSITION AVIATION INDUSTRY

The member representing Ukanafun/Oruk Anam Federal Constituency, Rep. Unyime Idem, has assured the Federal Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development of the National Assembly’s support to reposition the aviation sector of the country for maximum efficiency and impact.

Rep. Idem, who chairs the House Committee on Public Procurement, gave the assurance when the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, led a delegation from his ministry to a courtesy visit on him, at the National Assembly complex, Abuja.

According to the Ukanafun/Oruk Anam federal lawmaker, “the National Assembly will give the ministry every legislative backing needed to reposition the aviation and airspace sector to achieve its mandate and serve citizens better.

Earlier, the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo said the courtesy visit was to enlist the National Assembly’s backing as the “Tinubu-led administration is working to sanitize and reposition the sector for optimum productivity.”

According to Keyamo, “it is our firm belief that once we enlist the support of the 10th National Assembly, we can confidently assure Nigerians that we’re on course in our drive to fix the aviation sector. It is our promise to Nigerians and we’re bound by it.”
