The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has announced to the general public that the recent reports of recruitment exercise in the authority, published in some sections of both the traditional and social media, are false and misleading, stressing that it should be disregarded.

According to FAAN, its last recruitment exercise took place between March and May 2015 to recruit officers into the Airport Rescue and Fire Fighting Service (ARFFS), Aviation Security (AVSEC) and Information Communication Technology departments, which had shortage of professional staff. It added that the exercise was concluded in May 2015.

“At the appropriate time, the authority will invite successful candidates during that exercise, for mandatory training before deployment to various airports across the country”, said the General Manager, Corporate Affairs, FAAN, Yakubu Dati

He added: “We wish to emphasise that no recruitment exercise is taking place in FAAN at the moment.
