Green Africa, Nigeria’s Lagos-based value airline, is charting a new course in the aviation industry with the acquisition of its second owned aircraft, an ATR 72-600 with registration mark 5N-GAC. This strategic move, partly funded by Access Bank, marks a significant milestone in the airline’s journey to provide safe, reliable, and affordable air travel to a broader customer base.
“We are delighted to welcome our second owned aircraft (5N-GAC) to the fleet,” said Babawande Afolabi, Founder & CEO of Green Africa.
Afolabi stressed that: “The addition of 5N-GAC will help strengthen a sustainable foundation for Green Africa to grow and deliver on its promise to provide safe, reliable, and affordable air travel to more customers across Nigeria and the continent”.
Access Bank’s support underscores its confidence in Green Africa’s vision and the airline’s potential to transform the aviation sector.
“At Access Bank, we are committed to empowering businesses that drive economic progress and create long-term value for society,” said Roosevelt Ogbonna, Managing Director/CEO of Access Bank.
He went further: “Our partnership with Green Africa reflects our confidence in visionary enterprises that are transforming critical sectors of the economy.”
The new aircraft is expected to enhance the airline’s capacity to serve existing routes, bolster its operational flexibility, and reinforce its commitment to delivering exceptional service.
With its strong track record in on-time performance and affordability, Green Africa is poised to connect Nigeria, open up the West African seaboard, and contribute to continental economic development.
