Airport users and aviation security experts have expressed concern over illicit activities by persons employed as cleaners at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos.
THISDAY investigations revealed that the concessionaire to the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), which recruited the cleaners, allegedly pays them N15, 000 monthly and most often the payment is delayed.
So, the cleaners come to the airport and allegedly engage in other illicit activities in order to earn money and sustain themselves.
Industry security expert and the CEO of Centurion Securities, Group Captain John Ojikutu (retd), told THISDAY that allowing such persons who are poorly paid access to sensitive areas of the airport constitute security threat and could lead to serious security breach.
