Reps ask FG to remove redundant planes at airports

 


The House of Representatives has urged the federal government to remove all abandoned airplanes at the airports.

 

The green chamber mandated the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) and the Federal Airports Authority of Niger (FAAN) to ensure the clearance of the planes.

 

The resolution was sequel to a motion moved by Samuel Adejare on Thursday during plenary.

 

Speaking on the abandoned crafts, he said the planes are a visible eyesore that should be removed.

 

“The non-functional airplanes visible even from the runway demonstrates a low capacity in maintenance and recycling culture in the country,” he said.

The Committee on Aviation was asked to make sure the directive is carried out. And the committee is to report back within three (3) weeks for further legislative action
