The boss at Air Peace told people in Abuja that domestic carriers will tank if a new tax package kicks in next year. Allen Onyema said his group plans to sit down with lawmakers and the president to hash out adjustments, and he thinks the administration will come through when operators make their case heard.
Onyema praised the aviation minister for backing local airlines after years of getting treated like trash by everyone. The celebration event handed out awards to pioneers who built the sector from scratch, covering everyone from the country's first licensed pilot to airline founders and engineering company chiefs. The minister admitted the list probably missed some contributors, and organizers bumped the count from 40 honorees to 47 after realizing they forgot people.
