Nigerian Government Bans Private Ownership of Properties in Airport Security Zones

The Nigerian government has banned private ownership of properties within airport security zones to uphold public ownership under the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN). The Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo, emphasized the need to resolve property disputes and clarified that airport properties are excluded from privatization due to aviation security concerns.

The move aims to safeguard airport properties, ensure operational efficiency, and protect national aviation infrastructure.
