Investors in the air travel services sub-sector and regulatory agencies in the aviation sector are billed to seek options for airport development in Nigeria at the NigeriaTravelsMart annual colloquium holding on October 24 in Lagos

NnolimNnaji, chairman, House Committee on Aviation, will be addressing aviation stakeholders as guest speaker at the colloquium whose theme is on “Airport Concession and Options for Airports Development in Nigeria,” and seeks to deepen infrastructural investment in the air travels industry.

According to a statement from the company, expected panel of discussants at the colloquium includes DapoOlumide, CEO, Ropeways Transport Limited; Ali Mohammed Magashi, CEO, Kitari Consult Limited; and many others.

Simon Tumba, the publisher and CEO of NigeriaTravelsMart, said, “The event is organised annually to seek ways of improving the aviation sector in Nigeria.. This year we will be focusing on airport concession. As the government is planning a major overhaul of the MurtalaMuhammed International Airport, Lagos, we believe this theme is timely. In view of this, we will be engaging top aviation and financial experts to give us an in depth insight of this topic from a global and local perspective.”
