Recall that airline operators had threatened to shut down services or significantly hike airfares as JetA1 rose to above N3000 per liter from N900.
In response to airline operators, Keyamo assured that the Nigerian government would intervene to avoid collapse of the sector.
“I wish to formally assure you that the concerns raised by your members have received the full attention of the federal government and we shall take immediate steps to address the issues.
