Plateau Governor Launches Abuja-Jos Direct Flight with ValueJet Airline
Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, proudly inaugurated a direct flight between Abuja and Jos on Monday, with the partnership of ValueJet Airline, at the Yakubu Gowon Airport Heipang, near Jos. 

This collaboration comes as a result of an earlier Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the Plateau State government and ValueJet Airline on August 15, aimed at expanding flight services between Jos and Abuja.

ValueJet Airline initially launched its inaugural flight on October 10, 2022, and subsequently commenced flight services to Jos in February 2023. 

During the inauguration ceremony, the MoU was signed by Capt. Omololu Majekodunmi, the Managing Director of ValueJet, and Mr. Jatau Gyang, the Plateau Commissioner of Transportation, representing Governor Mutfwang.

Governor Mutfwang expressed his satisfaction with the realisation of the direct flight, stating that it reflects his commitment to opening Plateau to investment opportunities and fortifying its transportation sector. 

He highlighted the significance of this achievement in enhancing transportation within and outside the Plateau region.

He encouraged both the people of Plateau and those interested in visiting the state to make use of the newly established flight services. 

Moreover, he suggested that federal agencies operating in Plateau, such as the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies, should also collaborate with the private airline for their travel needs.

Mr. Jatau Gyang, in his statement, emphasised that this new flight service will not only foster trade but also boost tourism in Plateau State. 

He shared his vision for the Jos Airport, aiming to elevate its status to international recognition, positioning it as a hub for both passenger and cargo services.

Mr. Nantip Rindap, the General Manager of the Jos Airport, assured the public that all necessary safety measures have been put in place to guarantee the well-being of passengers along the route. 

Additionally, Mrs. Yewande Cole, the Head of Ground Operations at ValueJet Airline, reassured the people of Plateau that the airline is dedicated to adding substantial value to the state's transportation infrastructure.
