The Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) has commissioned Category II Instrument Landing System (ILS) at Benin Airport.

The managing director of NAMA, Capt. Fola Akinkuotu who revealed this in Lagos at a town hall meeting with NAMA staff in Lagos said the installation of the equipment was in line with the resolve to upgrade navigational infrastructure in strategic airports across the country to boost socio-economic activities in such areas.

Akinkuotu also announced that the agency installed and commissioned the damaged ILS at the Port Harcourt Airport.

The managing director said the flight commissioning was handled by Omni-Blue Aviation Ltd adding that the newly installed landing aids were operating optimally.

Akinkuotu also said the installation of CAT II ILS would commence at Maiduguri, Jos and Minna airports.

In line with management’s objective to maintain a healthy and productive workforce, Akinkuotu said the agency had concluded plans to enroll NAMA into the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) in the next two months.

He assured the staff that the contentious issue of review of condition of service (COS) was being handled and would soon be concluded by government.

Thereafter, Akinkuotu expressed gratitude to the management and staff of the agency for the support and cooperation accorded him since he became managing director stressing that whatever successes his administration has recorded could not have been without the individual and collective effort of NAMA workers.

He therefore implored every staff to put in more effort to make the agency excel stressing that hard work will be rewarded.
