The Governor of Ebonyi State, Mr. Francis Nwifuru, has sought technical support of the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) towards certification of the Ebonyi State International Airport.

Nwifuru made the request when he paid a courtesy visit to the Acting Director General Civil Aviation, (Ag. DGCA), Capt. Chris Najomo, on Monday, December 16, 2024 in his office in Abuja. 

During the visit, the Governor shared the State’s broader transport master plan, including its vision for the state- of-the-art airport which is to serve Ebonyi, Abia, Benue and part of Cross River states. 

Najomo thanked Nwifuru for the visit, assuring him of NCAA’s commitment to supporting the project by providing needed technical support and regulatory oversight in line with the federal government’s ease of doing business policy.
