Fed Govt Tightens Airport Security With New Joint Screening System

The Federal Government has introduced a one stop joint screening system at Nigerian airports to strengthen security and reduce delays for travellers. The directive comes through the Office of the National Security Adviser and targets both international and domestic terminals. Under the new system, security checks by different agencies will be merged into a single, coordinated screening point. Immigration, customs, aviation security, and other security agencies will now work together at one checkpoint instead of stopping passengers multiple times. Officials say the goal is to close security gaps, curb touting, and make passenger movement more efficient. The change is also designed to bring Nigeria’s airports closer to international best practices in aviation security. According to Ahmadu Danjuma, Acting Regional Manager (North Central) for the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, new X ray machines and L3 scanning devices have been installed […]

Ganduje backs FAAN MRO hangars to make Nigeria aviation hub

Chairman of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has outlined a bold vision to establish world-class Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) hangars across Nigeria’s international airports, a move expected to reposition the country as the leading aviation hub in West and Central Africa. The multi-billion-naira initiative aligns with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, which prioritises infrastructure and economic diversification. Why MRO hangars matter Nigeria currently spends millions of dollars annually on aircraft maintenance abroad, especially for C-Checks and D-Checks.
