Arik savours African achievers’ award

Arik Air, West and Central Africa’s largest airline, says its best is yet to come as the airline relishes the “Organisation of the Year” award bestowed on it by the African Achievers Award in Accra, Ghana.
The awards ceremony held at the Presidential Banquet Hall, State House, Accra, Ghana on February 28 was attended by African diplomats and State Governors from Nigeria.
According to Chris Ndulue, managing director of Arik Air, the Award is a true testimony of the rare and unique people-centric leadership qualities which the airline has displayed so far in the aviation sector across the globe as noted by the organisers.
“This award further confirms the place of Arik Air as not just West Africa’s premier airline but also the pride of Africa. Though Arik Air is a recipient of several national and international awards, every award reminds us of our commitment to continue to provide safe and comfortable air-travel experience for our teeming guests within Africa and across the globe,” Ndulue noted.
He stressed that Arik Air will continue to strive to ensure that it transforms air transportation not only in Nigeria but the whole of the African continent. “This was the reason why we decided to change the old order in 2006 by operating brand new aircraft thus becoming the first operator of new aircraft in Nigeria in almost two decades.
“The African Achievers’ Award is a call to do more and we at Arik Air will continue to improve on those qualities that have earned us this recognition because we believe that our best is yet to come.
“In the months ahead, we are going to be launching new routes as we strive to consolidate our position as the first choice for air travel within Nigeria and other destinations we serve in Africa, Europe and America,” he added.
