FAAN suspends taxi services in Abuja airport over ‘unresolved dispute among operators’
The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has suspended taxi services at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport (NAIA), Abuja.
Abdullahi Yakubu-Funtua, director of public affairs and consumer protection at FAAN, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday.
According to Yakubu-Funtua, the suspension was due to a conflict among car hike operators at the airport.
“The FAAN wishes to inform the general public that the airport car hire service at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja has been suspended with immediate effect,” the authority said.
“This is as a result of the unresolved factional dispute amongst the car hire operators which has been affecting airport car hire service operations.
“Consequent upon this suspension, FAAN management advises the general public and all airport users, particularly our esteemed passengers to use secured alternative means of transportation or E-hailing services in and out of the airport.
“The management of FAAN regrets any inconvenience this necessary suspension may cause our esteemed passengers, airport users and the general public.”
The agency also explained that normal car hire services would resume as soon as the operators resolved their differences.
