The Federal Government of Nigeria has announced that no public funds will be spent on the 2025 air show. Instead, the event will be fully funded by the private sector. This decision aligns with efforts to promote public-private partnerships (PPP) and reduce the financial burden on the government.
Air shows typically involve showcasing aviation technology, encouraging investment in the aviation sector, and fostering tourism. By involving private entities, the government aims to make the event self-sustainable and attractive to both local and international stakeholders.
This approach could help Nigeria demonstrate innovation and collaboration in hosting major events, potentially benefiting the country’s aviation industry and economy.
