As part of a strategic relationship with the ministry and Nigerian airlines, Boeing will provide planning workshops, training, technical support and assessments to airline operators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This agreement is an important step in establishing a sustainable civil aviation ecosystem in Nigeria as there is shared interest and value in driving innovation and progress,\u201d said Anbessie Yitbarek, Boeing vice president of Commercial Sales for Africa. \u201cThe importance of Nigeria for Boeing lies in its rich potential to foster economic growth, connect people, and shape the future of aviation in Africa and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
