The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has suspended two ValueJet pilots following a serious breach of aviation safety protocols at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, on Tuesday, August 5, 2025.
According to a statement signed by Michael Achimugu, the Director, Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, the incident involved the pilot commencing departure procedures from the designated bay without following mandatory pre-departure clearance protocols, a move described as reckless and endangering the safety of ground personnel and other airport users.
The licenses of Captain Oluranti Ogoyi and First Officer Ivan Oloba were immediately suspended pending a full investigation into the matter.
The NCAA emphasized the gravity of the breach and reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to aviation safety standards in Nigeria.
The enforcement action reflects the NCAA’s strict adherence to both national regulations and international safety norms to ensure the protection of all stakeholders involved in civil aviation operations.
“The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) confirms that it has received reports concerning a serious breach of aviation safety protocols by a ValueJet pilot at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja (Domestic Terminal) on Tuesday, August 5, 2025.
“Preliminary information indicates that the pilot in question commenced departure procedures from the designated bay without adhering to the mandatory pre-departure clearance protocols.
“This reckless action endangered the safety of ground personnel and other airport users, contravening established civil aviation regulations and international safety standards.
“The NCAA views this incident with utmost seriousness.
“Consequently, the Authority has taken immediate enforcement action by suspending the licences of the pilot, Captain Oluranti Ogoyi, and the co- pilot, First officer Ivan Oloba with immediate effect.
“This suspension will remain in place pending the conclusion of a full investigation into the incident.
“The Authority hereby reaffirms all stakeholders of its commitment to safety” reads the statement in part.
