“Within the three days of the President’s trip, he received executives of Airbus/ATR, and assured them that the aviation sector would be streamlined for efficiency, especially in the maintenance of aircraft and training. The Senior Vice President of Airbus/ATR, Public Affairs, Laurent Domergue, assured the President that the company was prepared to invest in the aviation sector, particularly in supplying planes to Nigeria.
“The President met with the President of the Swiss Confederation and President of Benin Republic for bilateral and economic discussions – in all of these, a high return on investment is expected and Nigerians would be better for it,” he added.
