There are 22 airports in Nigeria with paved runways. Of these, ten are international airports. There are also 21 Airstrips built mainly by the Nigerian airforce and multinational oil companies scattered about the country. The Federal Government owns and operates all the airports in Nigeria through its regulatory body, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria. Recently, a bill that allows for the construction, ownership and commercial operation of airports by private establishments has been passed into law.
