Tinubu Appoints Keyamo to Lead Air Mobilisation for Campaign

President Bola Tinubu has assigned Aviation Minister Festus Keyamo to lead the APC campaign’s Directorate of Air Mobilisation for his re-election bid. Keyamo, who serves as the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, will oversee air travel arrangements for campaign officials and staff across Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones.
In addition to Keyamo’s appointment, Tinubu also named Olubunmi Kuku, Managing Director of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, as Deputy Director I, and Farouk Umar as Deputy Director II.
Keyamo’s media adviser, Tunde Moshood, confirmed the appointments in a statement, stating that the directorate will organise air travel for designated campaign personnel. The move highlights the importance of air mobility in the ongoing re-election campaign.
