He said that the project, being executed by the Zamfara government, would positively improve the economic development of the state through job creation for the youth.

The minister described the international airport project as critical to the rejuvenation of economic development in the North West region.

He applauded Gov Dauda Lawal for embarking on the project, as it was capable of driving the economy of the state.

Keyamo said the federal government would consider lifting the non-flight zone declared by the Bello Matawalle administration in 2022 at height of insecurity in the state.

Gov Dauda Lawal, on his part, said
the state government would ensure the project was completed within the 30 months timeline.

Lawal said that funds for the project had been set aside to ensure its timely completion.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the project, to be executed by Triacta Nigeria Limited, is at the cost of N62 billion.

The airport is to be fitted with state-of-the-art facilities including a 3.4-kilometre primary runway suitable for commercial aircraft.
