According to Idu, one of the greatest impact and undoubtedly a redefining milestone in the future of Nigeria aviation which he said must be credited to the Minister of Aviation, Senator HadiSirika is the push for the review and amendment of Nigeria Civil Aviation act and by extension the Nigeria Civil Aviation Regulation Part 21 which provides the regulatory guidance for RPAS operations and development in Nigeria.
The milestone achievement, Idu said unveils the next generation in aviation and the potentials of civil Unmanned Aircraft (UAS) and commercial drone activitie0s.
Idu says the proposed Nig. CARs Part 21 Regulations provides for the implementation of a comprehensive monitoring framework for full regulation of RPAS in Nigeria, as well as to prepare the industry for a better future.
His words: “The multisector conference is aimed at promoting the understanding of the relevance of the new act and share information that will promote safe and secured operations in the face of commercialization of UAVs.
“At the forthcoming Dronetecx 2023, panellists will discuss how to create a healthy business environment for safe and secured UAS development as UAV and autonomous vehicle commerce is now set to experience exponential growth now that the door is open.”
