Lagos airport cable theft: FAAN reshuffles staff, expects more changes

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has carried out a minor re-organisation in the system.

The re-organisation which has been attributed to the recent scandalous theft of all the lighting cables at the Runway 18 Right of the Lagos International Airport by some undesirable elements saw the redeployment of the Regional Airport Manager, South West Airports at the international airport, Mr. Felix Akinbinu to the Airfield Services Department.

In a memo announcing the redeployment signed by the Managing Director of FAAN, Mr. Kabir Mohammed,  Akinbinu is to hand over to Mr. Sunday Ayodele who was hitherto the redeployment, the General Manager Airfield services on or before July 14, 2023.

The immediate redeployment formed part of actions to be taken by the organisation to prevent a repeat of the theft and incursion into the restricted parts of the airport.

The investigative committee set up to fish out all the FAAN workers and their accomplices involved in the theft of the stolen multi-million naira lighting cables are yet to conclude their probe.

Meanwhile, the fate of all the heads of the relevant departments placed on suspension on the order of the permanent secretary in the Ministry of aviation, Dr Emmanuel Meribole are still hanging.
