The governor of Akwa Ibom State, Udom Emmanuel, will receive the two aircraft which arrived the Murtala Mohammed airport in Lagos from abroad.
The Governor said the aircraft which will soon commence commercial activities to Lagos and Abuja – have currently landed in Lagos for necessary clearance from the nation’s air authorities.
He invited former Akwa Ibom governor, Victor Obong Attah to the ceremony, which he said was a fulfillment of the ex-governor’s vision in aviation development in the state, adding that the third aircraft was expected to arrive in a few days.
