The Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) has commissioned Category II Instrument Landing System (ILS) recently installed at the Benin airport in Edo State.
Managing Director of NAMA, Capt. Fola Akinkuotu during a town hall meeting with members of staff in Lagos said this was in line with the pledge by the agency to upgrade navigational infrastructure in strategic airports across the country in a bid to boost socio-economic activities in such areas.
Akinkuotu also announced that the agency has equally installed and commissioned the ILS at Port Harcourt airport which was damaged by an aircraft last year, saying that the flight commissioning which was handled by Omni-Blue Aviation Ltd indicated that the newly installed landing aids were operating at optimal capacity.
He also hinted that in the same vein, installation of CAT II ILS would commence at Maiduguri, Jos and Minna airports in the northern parts of the country.
