Minister of State for Aviation Hadi Sirika says ninety- eight per cent of the 2017 budget allocation to the Aviation sector will be used for ongoing projects in the airline industry in order to facilitate quality service delivery.
Sirika disclosed this during a meeting with a coalition of civil society organizations in Abuja.
He said the allocation will quicken government’s effort in reconstructing the runways at the Abuja and Kaduna airports.
