Ekiti Cargo Airport: Hon. Oriniowo Hails Governor Oyebanji Over NCAA's Approval for Commercial Operations.



The National Ex-Officio (South West) of the All Progressives Congress (APC), 
Honorable Bunmi Ajayi Oriniowo has commended Ekiti State Governor, His Excellency, Mr Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji over Federal Government approval of Ekiti Agro-Allied International Cargo Airport to commence scheduled flight operations, (otherwise known as commercial flights), effective October 4th, describing the fantastic development as Booster of Economic Development in the State. 

Recall, the development follows the expiration of  the initial approval for a non-scheduled flight approval for the airport by the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), in December 2024 and compliance with regulatory requirements. The NCAA in the letter dated October 3, 2025 addressed to the Governor of the State, Mr Biodun Oyebanji, confirmed the new approval for scheduled flight.


Reacting to the cheering development, Orininowo said Ekiti Agro-Allied International Cargo Airport represents a model of sub-national innovation that mirrors the renewed national drive for infrastructural integration and economic turnaround.

‘I wholeheartedly congratulate His Excelleny, Mr Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji, Dr. Kayode Fayemi who initiated it and the good people of Ekiti State on Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority approval to start commercial flight operations in Ekiti Cargo Airport where people from outside can access Ekiti State for Business and social economic development. 

The good People of Ekiti State now have access to Abuja within one hour with emphasis on employment opportunities for Youth People and continue business drive, she added.
