A statement by the Special Adviser on Media and Communications, Tunde Moshood on Monday said that this milestone agreement is the culmination of diplomatic and technical conversations that began during the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

He added that years of strategic dialogue and mutual interest have finally been brought to fruition through the proactive efforts of Minister Keyamo and his team.

Speaking at the signing ceremony, the Aviation Minister, Keyamo stated,
“Today’s signing not only fulfills a long-standing bilateral vision initiated during President Obasanjo’s time but also represents our commitment to expanding Nigeria’s global aviation footprint. This agreement will enhance trade, tourism, cultural exchange, and connectivity between Nigeria and the Caribbean region.”

The Minister was accompanied by top officials from the Federal Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development.

The agreement grants designated airlines from both countries the rights to operate passenger and cargo flights, establish commercial agreements, and access the other’s territory under agreed terms. This is expected to significantly strengthen economic and people-to-people ties.

Rohan Sinanan, Trinidad and Tobago’s Honourable Minister of Works and Transport expressed strong optimism about the potential of the agreement to boost cooperation and expand aviation opportunities for Caribbean and African carriers.

This BASA adds to Nigeria’s growing list of strategic international aviation agreements and reinforces the Tinubu administration’s commitment to improving air connectivity, promoting regional integration, and strengthening diplomatic relations through aviation diplomacy.
