The Federal government yesterday sacked 22
senior officials of the Federal Airports
Authority of Nigeria FAAN. Top directors,
general managers and deputy general
managers were handed their termination
letters while some general managers were
demoted.
Sources at the Ministry of Aviation say the
sack is part of efforts by the Federal
government to reduce the monthly overhead
of the ministry as most of the top
management officers had replicated duties.
The termination of appointments followed a
petition by some persons over the unlawful
promotion and placing of some junior staff
and new entrants into the ministry.
It is alleged that some of the top managers
who were employed by the former Minister of
Aviation, Stella Oduah, had only graduated
from University in the last 5 years and were
placed as manager even without any
experience. Some of such managers have
been demoted to their appropriate levels.
