FAAN suspends national aviation conference

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), has suspended the National Aviation Conference earlier scheduled for 1st to 4th April, 2020, at the International Conference Centre, Abuja.

A statement signed by General Manager, Corporate Affairs of FAAN, Mrs Henrietta Yakubu, on Tuesday in Lagos said that the suspension was necessary to safeguard public health in view of the Coronavirus pandemic.

She said that the World Health Organisation recently declared COVID 19 a global pandemic and advised individuals and organisations to avoid clustered gatherings to prevent the spread of the virus.

The spokesperson said that FAAN regretted the postponement and would announce a new date for the conference as soon as possible.
