Airport Cashless Policy Sparks Chaos, National Patriots Seek Presidential Intervention.
A sudden cashless payment policy introduced by the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) without due notice has caused disruption at major airports, forcing passengers to abandon vehicles and trek long distances to terminals.
At Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja, some travellers resorted to commercial motorcycles to avoid missing flights, raising serious security concerns for all especially foreign investors.
There are reports of criminal incidents, loss of property and possible abduction.
Advocacy group National Patriots says the short notice was inadequate and urges President Bola Ahmed Tinubu & Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development Festus Keyamo to suspend the policy.
Aviation bodies like International Air Transport Association advise gradual rollouts, often six months or more, to protect passenger safety and maintain investor confidence.
