complementary infrastructure services to ensure that the Nigerian Aviation Sector Roadmap is successfully implemented in the city.
In a statement by the Minister’s Chief Press Secretary, Anthony Ogunleye Bello, the Minister while noting that the geometric rise in Abuja’s population has led to increased demand for aviation services, said the Aviation Roadmap was coming at a very good time. He also revealed that the Administration is working towards the eventual relocation of aboriginal settlements around the airport to widen its base, adding that provisions have been for the payment of compensation and resettlement of the inhabitants of these villages.
“Ultimately, by the time about two sets of coaches arrive, we intend to run an Airport Express which will just take you from the Abuja Metro Station at the Central Business District to the airport in 18 minutes. “It is very good news because of the multiplier effects in terms of employment generation, economic activities and of course also, providing needed IGR for us, either directly or indirectly,” Bello said.
