According to Yakubu, this was part of FAAN’s preparations to ensure seamless facilitation of FAAN’s highly esteemed passengers during the Sallah celebrations and beyond.
“Also, maintenance of the conveyor belts at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos have been completed and are functioning optimally. In addition, airport security and other logistics have been upgraded and strengthened to provide for the expected increase in passenger traffic in and around our airports,” she said.

“We advise the general public and intended travellers to make early preparations towards completing their travel requirements in good time. We will also like to re-state that receiving of dignitaries at restricted areas by security agents and airport officials is prohibited and anyone found wanting will be prohibited,” she said.
