Umza Aviation Services Ltd (UAS) has announced plans to begin flight services between Ilorin, the capital of Kwara State, and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. The new flights will operate between 7:45 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. daily.

UAS's decision to add the Ilorin-Abuja route to its growing list of destinations has been cited as a testament to the ease of doing business in Kwara State and its enviably growing economy.

The operations of UMZA Air are widely expected to boost the local economy by attracting both local and foreign investors to the state, thereby increasing its internal revenue and enhancing its national profile.

The soon-to-begin UMZA flight services have already sparked positive reactions and feedback from Kwara residents and passengers from neighbouring states who have long awaited an affordable Ilorin-Abuja flight service.
