On his verified Twitter handle, @fkeyamo, the minister reported the preliminary meeting had with the Emirates minister in charge of aviation, Abdullah bin Touq, on the sideline of the highly powered conflict resolution meeting between the Presidents of the two seemingly friendly nations, Bola Ahmed Tinubu of Nigeria and Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, of the UAE.

Keyamo however, lauded the master stroke in frosty diplomatic relation management, and in the amicable restoration of mutually beneficial overseas partnerships as pulled by PBAT at Abu Dhabi which, not only resolved the existing diplomatic furor but struck new business deals for Nigeria.

The Minister promptly lauded PBAT right on his Twitter handle thus; “Special thanks to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for personally leading our delegation to end this impasse with the UAE. All credit goes to him. His Midas touch during the discussion was crucial. He just made my job easier!”

Olorogun Keyamo however hinted of his exploit at the ministerial level.

He said that a fruitful discussion, potent enough to improve air travel between the two friendly nations, he had with his counterpart, Abdullah bin Touq, of UAE.

Keyamo enthused, “Earlier today, I engaged my counterpart in charge of Aviation in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, on the sidelines of discussions by both Presidents before the breakthrough in negotiations”, he posted on Twitter.
