Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has declared that the state
government will sponsor indigenes of the state to study at the
Ethiopian Aviation Academy, a subsidiary of the Ethiopian Airlines
Group.
Speaking during his recent visit to the corporate headquarters
of Ethiopian Airlines in Addis Ababa, Wike said that the state
government would train her indigenes to become aviation
professionals.
He said that as an emerging regional aviation hub, the state
would groom professionals to drive the process.
He said the partnership entered with Ethiopian Airlines would
help the Rivers State meet the manpower needed for the new regional
aviation hub.
“We are looking forward to partnering with Ethiopian Airlines on
many fronts. First for Ethiopian Airlines to fly permanently from
Port Harcourt,” he said.
The governor, however, detailed his Executive Assistant
(Research and Documentation), Dr Jacob Beredugo and Professor
Kaisirm Nwuke, a Rivers Professional working with an international
agency in Ethiopia to liaise with the management of Ethiopian
Airlines to actualise the goals of the Rivers government/Ethiopian
Airlines partnership.
