Experts: Nigeria’s air traffic to hit 31m by 2030

Nigeria’s air traffic is expected to hit 31 million by 2030 just as traffic in the African continent is expected to rise to 400 million, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA).

To be able to achieve success and reap from the huge traffic, the country would also need $200billion to tackle Nigeria’s current infrastructure deficit.

A travel consultant, Mr. Tade Ojulari, disclosed these in a chat with New Telegraph in Lagos.

He said it was cheery news that Nigeria would hugely benefit from the projected huge traffic but warned that the country needed to begin serious overhauling of its facilities to accommodate it.
