Ibom Air has announced the appointment of Mr. Mfon Udomah and Dr. Eno Udoma-Eniang as Executive Directors responsible for Finance and Legal and Corporate Affairs, respectively. This move is seen as a strategic step for the airline as it prepares for its next phase of expansion. The decision was made public by the airline's Marketing and Communication Manager, Mrs. Aniekan Essienette, on Monday in Uyo.
Essienette emphasized that these appointments are intended to bolster the airline's operations, enhance service quality, and further its growth objectives.
Udomah, a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN), boasts over three decades of experience in both private and public sectors. Dr. Udoma-Eniang, a legal practitioner, also brings more than three decades of corporate expertise, having worked in telecommunications, financial services, and emerging technology sectors.
The airline also disclosed that Mr. Uko Udom, its Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, has retired from the board after five years of service. Essienette noted the board's appreciation for Udom's contributions and wished him well in his future pursuits.
These appointments come in the wake of Ibom Air's denial of allegations that it holds a monopoly over Victor Attah International Airport in Uyo. The airline clarified that it does not possess the authority to restrict other airlines from operating at the airport. This stance was based on the airline's assertion that the power to approve, regulate, suspend, or permit airline operations lies with the aviation regulatory authorities, as stipulated in Section 8(3) of the Civil Aviation Act 2022.
According to this law, the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) is the governing body responsible for regulating civil aviation in Nigeria. The airport began its international operations on May 2, 2026, with Ibom Air making history by operating the first flight from Uyo to Accra, Ghana, with a return service the following day.
