As the nation’s airports begin to reopen gradually for flight operations, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has called on air passengers to report any official from any agency that requests money under any guise.
In a statement on Sunday by its General Manager in charge of Corporate Affairs, Mrs. Henrietta Yakubu, she urged passengers to desist from giving money to officials.
“Arriving passengers are expected to have gone through the COVID-19 test before boarding their flights from ports of departure, therefore, they should not pay any money whatsoever to any airport official for the purpose.
“All COVID-19 measures put in place at the airports are free for passengers and does not attract any charges,” the statement said.
It has been reported several that, airport officials request money from passengers most times before rendering any service so she informed passengers and other airport users that there was no aspect of FAAN services at the airports that were being paid for by cash.
