In addition to this distinguished honour, Skyway Aviation Handling Company (SAHCO) PLC was also recognized with the Aircraft Handling Service Achievement Award, solidifying its reputation as a leading ground handling company in Africa.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Fortune Idu, Founder and Convener of the NIGAV Awards, emphasized that the initiative is designed to foster collaboration within the aviation industry, promote healthy competition, and encourage the development of safer and more sustainable air services across Nigeria.
He praised Dr. Taiwo Afolabi for his transformative investments in aviation ground handling and tourism, describing him as a key player whose business acumen and commitment have significantly elevated service standards in the industry. “Dr. Afolabi’s impact stretches beyond aviation—his footprint is boldly stamped across marine, transportation, hospitality, and tourism sectors,” Mr. Idu added.
