Apparently to sanitise the general aviation segment of local aviation, the Civil Aviation Authority Nigeria, yesterday, ordered a three-day ultimatum for all private operators and holders of non-commercial flight permits to submit for a re-evaluation.Suspends three operators for illegal hire-and-reward services

Such illegality, which is all too frequent among the rich and public officers, contravenes the Nigeria Civil Aviation Act, robs the government and aviation agencies of statutory taxes and charges, and deprives victims of insurance coverage in case of incidents and accidents. “In line with our zero tolerance for violation of regulations, the Authority has suspended the PNCF of these operators.

The Guardian earlier reported that the post-COVID-19 economic realities dipped the General Aviation segment with a drastic reduction in the number of private jets in the country, declining from over 200 in 2015 to about 100 in 2022, out of which about 46 are active. Najomo emphasised that only aircraft listed in the Operation Specifications of the AOC are authorised to be used in the provision of such charter services.

Some 12,948 startups have so far been registered through the Nigeria Startup Act. The National Information Technology Development Agency , which disclosed this, said they were registered for labeling.
