Binani Air Begins Operations, Aminatu Dahiru Chiroma Says Airline Ready to Compete in Nigeria’s Aviation Sector

The President of the Binani Group, Aminatu Dahiru Chiroma, has declared that the newly launched airline is ready to redefine standards in Nigeria’s aviation industry following its inaugural commercial flight.

Speaking during the inaugural flight ceremony, Chiroma said the airline was established to set a new pace in aviation through quality service, consistency, and passenger satisfaction.

The launch also marks a historic milestone in Nigeria’s aviation sector, as Binani Air is regarded as the first airline owned by a Northern Nigerian woman, making its debut a symbolic breakthrough for women in business and aviation leadership.

“Insha-Allah, this is the day we have all been waiting for and I am glad it is finally here,” she said.

According to her, despite the highly competitive nature of the aviation industry, the airline is fully prepared to compete and deliver world-class services to Nigerians.

“We are ready and set to show Nigerians what it means to have the best,” she added.

Chiroma noted that early feedback from passengers on the airline’s hospitality and onboard treatment already reflects the standard the company intends to maintain.

She described the testimonies from passengers during the inaugural operations as “a foretaste of what Nigerians should expect from Binani Air.”

The airline commenced its first operations with flights from Abuja to Kano and Yola, drawing attention from industry stakeholders and passengers who described the development as a significant addition to Nigeria’s growing aviation sector.
