An aircraft operated by the United Nigeria Airlines (UNA) landed at the Bayelsa State International Airport on Wednesday to signal the commencement of commercial flight operations at the airport.

Those onboard include Duoye Diri, Bayelsa state governor; Obiora Okonkwo, the airline’s chairman, Blessing Oborududu, Tokyo Olympics wrestling silver medalist; members of the Bayelsa state caucus in the national assembly, among others.

In April, the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) gave approval to Bayelsa for the state-owned airport to commence flight operations.

Addressing the jubilant crowd at the airport, Diri announced that full commercial flights would commence in two weeks based on bookings made.

He expressed optimism that with commercial flights into and out of Bayelsa, economic activities would begin to boom in the state.

“I have just arrived safely at the Bayelsa International Airport, Yenagoa with the inaugural commercial flight operated by United Nigeria Airlines,” Diri said.
