Staff of Federal Airport Authorities of National (FAAN) have occupied the domestic terminal of Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport, protesting move to concession major airports in the country.

The aviation workers also kicked against the government directive to return all staff that retired from 1st April 2014 to Pension commission.

Chairman of Air Transport Service Senior Staff Association of Nigeria, HASSAN ALIYU insisted the concession plan will force many staff on retrenchment while the future of those retired may not be assured. 

ALIYU disclosed that FAAN staff are satisfied with the traditional pension scheme being operated by FAAN and would rather not succumb to any forceful attempt to return aviation workers to PENCOM.
