The Federal Government of Nigeria has appointed Med-View Airline through National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA to participate in the evacuation of about 5,037 Nigerians facing social challenges of various degrees in Northern African country, Libya.
An agreement to that effect was signed at the NEMA headquarters in Abuja on December 29, 2017 between the two organisations to facilitate smooth airlifting of Nigerians out of the troubled zone.
Med-View will be participating in the airlifting of 5,037 evacuees with another Nigerian carrier.
“This kind of responsibility is meant for Nigerian carriers, because it our responsibility and we have the capacity to carry out this operation.
We have demonstrated the capacity that we can do it and we are honoured to have been appointed by the Federal Government through NEMA”, said Med-View’s Executive Director, Business Development and Commercial, Mr. Isiaq Na’Allah who participated in the signing of the agreement.
“It is a known fact that Med-View Airline has been in operations for the past 10 years. We do Hajj operations and we do it successfully and the record is there for everybody to see, that is a factor I think the government considered before we are assigned this national project.
We will deliver professionally up to international standard and the government is not making any mistake for entrusting Nigerian carrier to this kind of project.”
