INSTITUTE OF AVIATION SAFETY AND MANAGEMENT MBOSI, ANAMBRA ESTABLISHMENT BILL PRESENTED by Senator (Dr.) Ifeanyi Ubah, PASSES FIRST READING.
Today being Wednesday, November 20, 2019, I sponsored a bill to establish an Institute of aviation safety and management in Mbosi, Anambra State.
This institute is aimed at meeting the needs of the aviation industry by producing well trained staff for the Nigerian aviation industry. The institute will provide students with thorough training and aviation related services in accordance with international standards. Upon completion, the institute will be approved by the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) under the umbrella of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to take up training which leads to the issuance of Certificates and License.
The institute will be a hub for employment and will attract students from all parts of the world, as well as boost my constituency and State’s GDP growth tremendously. If the bill is subsequently assented to, the Institute of Aviation Safety and Management Mbosi will offer Full-time, Part time and Correspondent (Online classes). The Certificate will be acceptable worldwide as the school will be a member of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
The primary aim of this bill is to contribute immensely to the growth of the country`s aviation industry by producing professionals for the travel and tourism industry, and in turn, create employment opportunities. Students will be exposed to practical training by way of organizing programmes within and outside the country.
Conclusively, for the Nigerian aviation sector to thrive in the global economy, adequate institutions must be put in place to ensure that we competitively meet up with global aviation standards. It is imperative that we pay more attention to the aviation sector, hence the need to Establish the Institute of Aviation Safety and Management Mbosi, Anambra. It is therefore my expectation that having passed the first reading, the bill will be read the second time and recommended to the relevant committee for further legislative action.
