Ibrahim Abdulsalam has assured the travelling public of their safety
within the nation’s airspace.

 According to him, ‘’all communication, navigation, surveillance and
air traffic management facilities of the agency are working at optimal
levels’’.

He made this known at the Aviation family forum organised by the
Nigerian Institute of Public Relations in honour of Mr. Basil
Agboarumi who was recently elevated to the position of General

International airports to further enhance safety of flight operations
at all times and in all weather conditions.

  The NAMA boss affirmed that the agency ‘’ upholds the highest
standards in air traffic management as the vision of the agency is to
be one of the leading air navigation service providers in the world’’.

He also applauded the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR)
for its professionalism, excellence and transparency saying “through
various trainings, workshops and seminars, NIPR has moulded icons
whose contributions to the Nigerian economy have been legendary
producing the likes of Mr. Agboarumi who is a valuable product of this
reputable institute’’.

He enjoined all members of NIPR to imbibe and assimilate the code of
ethics of the noble profession as the sustenance of the Nigerian
project largely depends on them noting that PR is an integral aspect
of the world economy as no business can survive without it.



Speaking at the forum, the National President of NIPR, Dr. Rotimi
Oladele said that ‘’there is a visible indicator  that the aviation
industry is growing but there is need to support the industry to grow
through aggressive information management’’.

 He  declared that the aviation of tomorrow ‘’should be based on
information management as business can only thrive on accurate
information and  that is why Public Relations cannot be relegated
-NIPR should be a role model”.

Dr. Oladele, appealed to NIPR members in the aviation sector to work
harder and promote integrity, saying that ‘’ modesty is important for
PR personalities. We must build the reputation of Nigeria and all the
Chief Executive Officers in the aviation sector must be part of it’’.
