Rabiu Yadudu is proving that he is a reformer, writes Dan Aibangbe In my long experience as a public policy watcher and commentator, one of the major Achilles heels of public administration has been the tendency to put the proverbial square pegs in round holes, mostly for wrong reasons of political expediency and parochial interests. This phenomenon, hitherto, had pervaded the Nigerian polity, not sparing even the somewhat elitist aviation industry, especially the regulatory ‘Triumvirate’ of Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) and the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA). But when in May, 2019, a new helmsman emerged to steer the affairs of FAAN, the average Nigerian was oblivious of the event and the possible beneficial changes that would follow. The new incumbent, no doubt, was eminently qualified with veritable track record. He came with something a bit unusual in the ordinary Nigerian Civil Service – he was prepared for leadership and change management. He had a clear vision and mission to accomplish. He was both a professional and a technocrat. His name is Captain Rabiu Hamisu Yadudu.
