“As a business rooted in Africa with a global outlook, this initiative reflects our belief in the remarkable ability of Nigerians and Africans to excel on the global stage. Through this festival, we aim to celebrate Nigeria’s rich cultural heritage and showcase its endless possibilities to the world.”

Kimemia highlighted the festival’s alignment with Optiva Capital’s values of global access and wealth creation, adding, “For families who often travel abroad to experience the wonder of Christmas, this event brings that magic home, right here in Nigeria. We want this airport to be more than a transit hub—it’s a place of celebration, reflection, and connection.”

Stanley Ezeani, Managing Director, MBR Signature, the initiator of the Christmas Festival said: ”Through the Christmas Festival, we aim to revive the magic and wonder that once defined the holiday season. Over time, the charm and fantasies of Christmas have reduced due to various modern challenges.

“However, this festival seeks to rekindle the spirit, bring back the joy, uniqueness, and enchantment that make Christmas truly special. By recreating cherished traditions and fostering new memories, we hope to inspire a renewed appreciation for the beauty of the season.”

Kola Bamigboye, Acting Chief Operating Officer, Bi-Courtney Aviation Services, said: “We are delighted to partner with Optiva Capital Partners and MBR Signature for this year’s Christmas Festival. This collaboration is a testament to how three distinct brands—MBR, BI-Courtney, and Optiva Capital Partners—can unite with a shared purpose: to spread joy and rekindle the festive spirit during the holiday season.

“Together, we aim to create a memorable celebration that captures the true essence of Christmas, bringing happiness to our community.”
