FAAN begins sale of e-tags at airports
The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) on Friday began the sale of 2024 e-tags that would permit entry into the 24 federal airports in Nigeria.
In a statement in Abuja, FAAN said the sale of the tags aligned with a presidential directive approved by the Federal Executive Council (FEC).
It said the meeting mandated that all the users of federal airports nationwide should pay charges at the gates.
Francis Ajaguna, the spokesperson for Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport (NAIA), told journalists that many people came to the airport and bought the tags.
”FAAN’s Commercial Department confirms that it has started issuing the e-tags, and people are buying them,” he said.
