Confab Committee Rejects Aviation Merger

The National Conference Committee on Transportation has recommended that the three parastatals in the aviation industry, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority and the Nigerian Airspace Management Authority, which were earlier merged, should be returned to the status quo.
The Chairman of the Committee, Senator Musa Adede, said this while presenting the reports and recommendations of the committee at the plenary on Tuesdayin Abuja.
The committee also asked the Federal Government to urgently complete the Ajaokuta Steel Complex before the 2015 general elections.
“The Ajaokuta Warri Rail Line was awarded in 1986, with the completion period of five years; as I speak to you 14 years after, that project has not been completed and it is very important for us to realise that the Ajaokuta Warri Rail Line should be completed,” he said.
