The Nation Newspaper Multiple baggage checks: FAAN, ONSA collaborate to reduce physical contact at airports

and the Office of the National Security Adviser have concluded plans to reduce the numbers of military and paramilitary personnel at Nigeria international airports who have physical touches with passengers’ baggage multiple times.

The government said it is committed to streamlining travelling and related protocols at airports for seamless passenger facilitation. Managing Director of FAAN, Mrs Olubunmi Kuku, at the weekend disclosed that the agency and the Office of the NSA have agreed to carry out short and long term measure to address the issue including the creation of a joint coordination room where all the agencies can view CCTV cameras to ascertain what they are looking for.

“We have agreed on a few things, the first one is a short term intervention where we reduce the number of agencies at the airports because we have some that were doing just sort of routine checks, just moving around to observe rather than disturbing passengers.
