SAN FRANCISCO, July 05, (THEWILL) – The Managing Director, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), Mr. Saleh Dunoma, says the just re-opened Maiduguri International Airport has been approved for commercial operations.
In a Sunday statement by FAAN’s General Manager, Corporate Affairs, Mr. Yakubu Dati, FAAN assured Nigerians and airport customers that security has been beefed up within and outside the airport for passengers’ safety.
