“The Emir assured UNA of his continued support and requested for flights to link Kano, which had a huge population of Igbos, to the South East states.

“He highlighted the long standing relationship between Kano and the South East,  and stated that if a route is open between Kano and the South East, it would further boost economic development, not only in the region but  in Kano as well.

“The Chairman of United Nigeria Airlines, Prof. Obiora Okonkwo, assured him that flights from Kano to the South East states will commence before the Christmas season to afford travelers faster ease of movement.”
