Keyamo Signs Performance Bond With Agencies’ Heads

Speaking at the event in Abuja on Thursday, the minister said: “The agencies are burdened with the responsibility of giving meaning to public policies and programs for the wellbeing of the people and the achievement of the objectives and goals of the government. Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), are permanent institutions that ensure continuity and neutrality in governance, hence the need for the CEOs to prioritise transparency, efficiency, and collaboration to ensure effective public service delivery.

“The end result of our collective efforts is to build a safe, secured and efficient aviation industry focused on making Nigeria a hub that meets international standards and best practices for the African continent.”

On his agenda and focus for the ministry, the minister said: “President Bola Tinubu administration plans to focus on optimising and boosting revenue generation for Nigeria’s Aviation industry and also ensure strict compliance with international regulations and standards.

“Our five-point Agenda is a tool toward achieving the Mandate, Vision, and Mission of the Ministry.

These includes; –

• Ensure strict compliance with safety regulations and continuous upward movement of Nigeria’s rating by ICAO.
• Support for the growth and sustenance of local airline businesses whilst holding them to the highest international standards in the Aviation industry.
• Improvement of infrastructures in the Aviation industry.
• Development of human capacity within the industry and optimising revenue generation for the federal government.
• “To actualise the five-point agenda for the growth of the Nigerian Aviation value chain, the Aviation Ministry is looking forward to a new phase of partnership and collaboration, by leveraging on the immense opportunities in the sector to attract Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and joint-venture partnerships with heads of international economic organisations, presidents of transnational corporations and principals of leading privately-owned enterprises.”

Also speaking at the event, special adviser to the president, Hadiza Bala Usman warned the ministry and its agency heads to perform or get fired in line with the president’s directive
