The Nigerian Senate has officially confirmed Capt. Chris Ona Najomo as the new Director General of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA).
Najomo’s appointment was ratified on Thursday following the presentation of a report by the Senate Committee on Aviation during plenary. Following deliberations, the Senate unanimously confirmed Najomo as the new NCAA Director General.
The committee’s chairman, Sen. Buhari Abdulfatai (APC-Oyo), highlighted Najomo’s extensive experience and notable contributions to the aviation sector, affirming his suitability for the role.
“This is due to his vast experience and outstanding contributions to the aviation industry,” Abdulfatai stated while urging the Senate to approve the committee’s recommendation.
Backing this position, Senator Mohammed Monguno (APC-Borno) noted that, despite not being a member of the aviation committee, he found Najomo’s credentials impressive. The Senator further emphasized that security agencies had raised no objections to his appointment.
