By David Kabiyesi

Unknown to many, former President, Muhammadu Buhari had hurriedly set-up boards of aviation agencies barely a day before leaving office

This move has continue to send tongues wagging with Nigerian wondering why Buhari had to wait till the last minute to set-up a board after the aviation sector was allowed to run itself without a board for almost a decade

Recall that Buhari administration failed to inaugurate boards of six agencies in the industry despite that their Acts make the boards mandatory.

The agencies include the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA), the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology (NCAT), the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) and the recently created Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB).
