The Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has ordered the immediate relocation of all aircraft stationed at the general aviation terminal of the Nnamdi Azikiwe international airport, Abuja ahead of the inauguration of the new government scheduled for May 29, 2023.
The relocation directive was contained in a statement addressed to aircraft operators and signed by the regional manager of FAAN, Kabir Mohammed, stating that many of the aircraft parked at the aviation terminal in Abuja are private jets belonging to wealthy Nigerians, firms and airlines.
FAAN further noted that the removal of aircraft parked at the Abuja airport is necessary to enhance the safety of the airport during the forthcoming presidential inauguration.
