The Federal Government has hinted plans to convert Zaria Hotels in Kaduna State to classrooms and hostels for the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology, Zaria.
The Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo, who spoke to newsmen in Zaria, added that the Hotels had been acquired as an annexure to the NCAT to widen its growth potential.
Keyamo said that NCAT remained the best institution for the aviation industry in Nigeria and West Africa.
According to him, “The landmass we have here is enough for expansion, so the potential for the college, in terms of expansion, is great.
“But, in spite of that, we have also acquired Zaria Hotels as an annexure to the college. We want to add to the facilities on ground.”
The minister assured the management of the college that government would keep working on areas that needed improvement.
In his remark, acting Rector of NCAT, Mr Joseph Imalighwe, commended the minister for the visit and support for the college.
