The Federal Government has approved the appointment of the current Manager, Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, Kabir Mohammed, as the new Managing Director of the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria.
He is expected to assume duty next week to replace Capt Rabiu Yadudu who was removed as FAAN’s Managing Director.
Before his appointment as the new FAAN boss, Mohammed was also the Regional General Manager, North Central.
He was appointed as the Chairman of Aviation Roadmap Implementation Committee in January 2022 by the Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, a position he effectively combined with his office as the General Manager, Special Duties at FAAN.
As at the time of filing this report, details of why Yadudu was removed were still sketchy.
