Africa-Press<\/a> – Nigeria<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) on Thursday reiterated its earlier directive that only passengers will be allowed into airport terminals.<\/p>\n

FAAN management disclosed this in a series of tweets on the agency\u2019s official handle.<\/p>\n

The agency also urged all travellers and airport users to strictly abide by all laid down travel protocols, adding that a compliance monitoring team has been constituted at the airports to drive total compliance.<\/p>\n

The tweet read, \u201cAs the world grapples with the second wave of the dreaded coronavirus pandemic, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria has stepped up measures to ensure the safety of travelling.<\/p>\n

\u201cPassengers and other airport users across the nation from the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, to Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, Port Harcourt International Airport, Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport and others within its network, the Authority is not leaving any stone unturned to ensure safe and secure facilitation of travellers.<\/p>\n

\u201cAcross the airports, car parks have been rearranged for seamless pick-up and drop off to avoid congestion. We have also created new drop off zones for passengers with reduced mobility.<\/p>\n

\u201cOperational and directional signages have also been conspicuously marked at both the airside and landside to make movements easier for airport users and to promote social distancing protocols.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdditionally, we have intensified the process of disinfecting all baggage before entering the terminals, as well as enhanced temperature screening of all passengers and staff using infrared scanners. We have also separated access entry points for passengers and staff to reduce congestion and improve on facilitation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Authority will like to use this opportunity to advise all travellers and airport users to strictly abide by all laid down travel protocols and also reiterate that only passengers will be allowed into the terminals.<\/p>\n

\u201cA compliance monitoring team has been constituted for each of our airports to drive total compliance. FAAN\u2026\u2026 Committed to her core values of Safety, Security and Comfort.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
