The award ceremony, held in Lagos, gathered top aviation stakeholders, including regulators, airline executives, and airport authorities.

This latest achievement by ValueJet underscores its commitment to prioritising passengers through comfort, reliability, affordability, and service efficiency. The airline has steadily expanded its domestic and regional footprint while maintaining a strong service culture. This balance between growth and quality has positioned ValueJet as a rising force in Nigeria’s aviation landscape.
Speaking on the recognition, the Managing Director and Accountable Officer of ValueJet, Captain Omololu Majekodunmi, emphasised the airline’s passenger-first approach. “This recognition is a strong affirmation of our commitment to putting passengers at the centre of everything we do,” he said. “We continuously improve the travel experience by ensuring safety, reliability, and service excellence at every touchpoint.”
Meanwhile, the NIGAV Awards continue to spotlight excellence beyond airline operations. A standout feature remains the Cabin Crew Contest, known as the King and Queen of the Air. The contest celebrates professionalism, poise, and service delivery among cabin crew across Nigeria. ValueJet has previously excelled in this category, producing notable winners such as Elvis Ikpa, Chinaza Miracle Okechukwu, and Henry Chika.
These accomplishments reflect the airline’s strategic investment in human capital, particularly in training and service delivery. By developing highly skilled cabin crew, ValueJet ensures passengers enjoy consistent onboard experiences that align with global standards. In addition, this focus strengthens brand trust and customer loyalty in a highly competitive market.
With this latest recognition, the airline continues to reinforce its reputation as a forward-looking airline. The award not only validates its operational strategy but also signals its role in advancing service standards across Nigeria’s aviation sector. Therefore, as competition intensifies, ValueJet’s customer-centric model may well become a benchmark for others in the industry.
