New Aviation Ministry Perm Sec Tours NAMA, NCAA Facilities

The permanent secretary of the Federal Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Mahmoud Adam Kambari has commenced a strategic familiarisation tour of aviation agencies, beginning with the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) and the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), as part of efforts to strengthen institutional efficiency and deepen inter-agency collaboration.

The visit, which is expected to extend to other agencies under the ministry, is aimed at gaining firsthand insight into their operations while fostering professionalism, synergy, and industrial harmony across the aviation sector.

Speaking during the visits, Kambari reaffirmed the ministry’s commitment to working closely with its agencies, describing them as critical partners in achieving national aviation objectives.

He assured agency heads of his readiness to support their mandates and promote a unified approach to sectoral development.

Director of press of the ministry Chindaya Ahmadu Adamu said Kambari underscored the importance of reinstating regular top management meetings involving the honourable minister, the permanent secretary, ministry directors, and heads of aviation agencies.

He noted that such engagements would serve as a strategic platform for addressing sectoral challenges and advancing sustainable solutions.

Kambari emphasised that his administration would prioritise collaboration, staff welfare, and operational safety, stressing that a motivated workforce is essential for optimal performance.

He also called for timely staff promotions across agencies to prevent stagnation and boost morale.

According to him, “We will continue to support all agencies to succeed, ensuring that Nigeria’s aviation industry remains a key economic driver and a hub of global connectivity.”

He further urged staff across the agencies to remain dedicated, loyal, and supportive of their leadership in order to achieve organisational mandates effectively.
