The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has unveiled a former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Ganduje, as the Chairman of the Board of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria.

The unveiling was confirmed in a video posted on X by the Special Adviser on Digital Media to the minister, Gbenga Saka, during the inauguration ceremony in Abuja on Wednesday.

This comes a few days after Ganduje’s resignation as the ruling party’s chairman.

Ganduje, a former governor of Kano State, was inaugurated with other members of the board, including the managing director of FAAN, Ms Olubunmi Kuku; Ms Dorothy Duruaka; Ahmed Ibrahim Suleiman; Nasiru Muazu; Omozojie Okoboh; TP Vembe, and Bridget Gold, who will serve as secretary of the board.- How Couple Welcomed

Speaking at the event, Keyamo said, “As we inaugurate this new board, we carry the weight of expectation that we must continue to foster an environment where aviation can thrive, connect diverse regions, and promote socioeconomic development across our nation.

“The challenges we face are numerous—from infrastructure deficits to the ever-evolving dynamics of global aviation. Yet, I am confident that the wealth of experience and expertise that each of you brings to this board will be instrumental in steering FAAN towards achieving its mission.” Vanguard
