Skyway Aviation Handling Company Limited (SAHCOL) has elevated Mr. Basil Agboarumi to the position of General Manager, Corporate Communications
According to a statement on Tuesday, Agboarumi was the Assistant General Manager, Corporate Communications, until his recent appointment.
The GM, who holds a National Diploma in Mass Communication from the Federal Polytechnic, Auchi, and a Higher National Diploma in Mass Communication from the Federal Polytechnic, Oko, was the Editor-in-Chief of the Think-Right Magazine and the Auchi Express, the official newspaper of the institution.
His experience took another turn during his National Youth Service with the Kanji Lake National Parks, New-Bussa, Niger State in 1997.
SAHCOL said in the statement that Agboarumi authored a book entitled: ‘Borgu: Past, Present and Future’, which chronicled the potential of the Borgu tribe in Niger State, adding that his flair for writing was further given a boost when in 1999 he was mandated by the Nigerian National Parks’ headquarters, Abuja to compile a book entitled: ‘Attributes and Potential of the National Parks in Nigeria’.
Agboarumi joined the Skypower Aviation Handling Company Limited in 2000, which was then a subsidiary of Nigeria Airways Limited, as the pioneer Head of the Public Affairs Unit.
Following the subsequent privatisation and takeover of the company by the SIFAX Group in 2009, he was appointed as the Head of Corporate Communications, with a mandate to spearhead the re-branding of the new company known as Skyway Aviation Handling Company Limited.
