With the completion of the ICAO quality assurance tests, stakeholders anticipate that commercial operations will commence shortly, allowing the airport to serve as a vital hub for air travel in Nigeria. The successful launch of Gusau Airport is expected to provide a much-needed boost to the local economy and improve service delivery in the aviation sector.
