Business aviation firm Flybird Aircraft Management Services Limited (Flybird AMSL) has reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening global partnerships in aviation ahead of the maiden Nigeria International Airshow (NIA).
The event, scheduled for December 2–4, 2025, at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport (NAIA), Abuja, will mark a significant milestone as Nigeria celebrates 100 years of aviation.
Minister of Aviation and Aerospace, Festus Keyamo, said the airshow will serve as a catalyst for deeper regional integration and enhanced connectivity across Africa.
“The show will increase the synergy between financial institutions and the aviation industry toward contributing to a sustainable economy and environmental ambition,” he said. “It will also help achieve a more integrated aviation industry to accelerate the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).”
As one of the event’s key sponsors, Flybird AMSL said its participation reflects its commitment to driving innovation, operational excellence and strategic partnerships within Nigeria’s aviation sector. The firm noted that supporting the airshow aligns with its mission to strengthen safety, efficiency and sustainable growth in the business-aviation ecosystem.
