The Federal Government has lifted the temporary suspension on enforcement granted to Messrs Naebi Dynamic Concepts Limited, consultants for the collection of helicopter landing charges for air navigation services related to helicopter operations by oil companies in the Gulf of Guinea.
In a state on Tuesday, the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) said a ministerial directive on the above subject has okayed Messrs Naebi Dynamics Concepts Ltd to immediately resume collection of levies related to air navigation services for helicopter operations by oil companies operations at fields, platforms, terminals, rigs, FPSOs (Floating Production, Storage and Offloading), heliports, helipads and aerodromes in line with its contract with the Federal Government.
“The ministerial directive which specified that Naebi Dynamic concept Ltd shall strictly invoice oil companies directly however excluded helicopters operated by Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON) from the said levies by the consultant,” NAMA disclosed in the statement signed by Abdullahi Musa,
Director, Public Affairs and Consumer Protection.
It will be recalled that the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo had in June 2024 temporarily suspended the collection of helicopter landing levies following concerns raised by Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON).
