Rabiu Yadudu, made this known at an interactive session with the League and Airports Aviation Correspondents in Lagos on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Yadudu said some of the equipment such as the baggage landing, runway and the central cooling system among others were more than 40 years old and above.<\/p>\n<p>He said that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/05\/24\/lagos-govt-faan-react-to-report-of-plane-crash-in-lagos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FAAN<\/a> had inaugurated an ad hoc committee in 2021 because it saw that most of the facilities were aged.<\/p>\n<p>He said that these equipment were supposed to be replaced every 15 years, but some had gone 25 to 30 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe major repair is of ageing equipment and components. I gave you an example in Lagos; abandoned runway and airfield lighting. Also, the key elements at the MMA (Murtala Muhammed Airport) and any other airports that we did not replace, but now, we are replacing them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome were last replaced in either 1980 or 1985. Now, we are replacing them. It is only the air-conditioning system that we have not yet procured, but we are processing it and the airfield lighting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, all other basic ones such as disabled aircraft, baggage handling and other basic ones that the people see every day, we have started with them. The avio bridges, we have started with them and that is in terms of infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, we have a committee that is working and they gave us the state-of-the-art equipment for all the airports so that we can make use of it, work with the ministry and use it to know their status so that we can plan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year, we will work in Akure, Borno, Sokoto and next year, we will work in Port Harcourt, Benin and Yola. We don\u2019t have all the money to fix all, but we will do the entire airports gradually,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Yadudu, while responding on plans to start 24-hour operations of the airports, said, \u201cFAAN cannot operate an airport that it cannot break even, because it is already challenged, it can only operate 24 hours airport if it knows that the business can be sustainable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The managing director also sympathised with the domestic airlines on the scarcity of Jet A1, saying that if anything affected the airlines, it would definitely affect FAAN and every other thing or organisation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFAAN is working actively with the airlines with the NCAA DG, there will be some positive actions from the government soon on Jet A1 availability,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Yadudu also said that the relocation to the new terminal at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport would be done in phases.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI told airlines that operate morning and afternoon flights to move to the new terminal so that we will decongest the old terminal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is unfortunate that some of them said they will not move, but FAAN is not ready to compel them to move.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were complaining of the bad facilities and the baggage handling, now, FAAN has provided them with a new one, yet, they refused to move,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria says it has begun the replacement and repair of aged equipment used to carry out its daily operations at the airports across the country.
