Under the Ministry of Transport, Urban Mobility and Road Safety, the Board approved the request for termination of the Donsin airport concession agreement.
This termination follows several breaches noted in the agreement.
“The private partner should operate the infrastructure for thirty years before handing it over to the State, so its contribution to the project is derisory.
Which is unacceptable. Also, the tax system applied reveals shortcomings. Many clauses of this convention are contrary to civil aviation regulations at the national and international levels.
The financial model does not guarantee the sustainability of the sovereign structures of civil aviation either,” explained Minister Roland SOMDA.
He reassures the national opinion that the government currently has credible alternatives with other partners to find a funding model that preserves the interests of the State.
