The
Federal Government has recalled two out of the nine directors who were sacked
from the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) on Friday.
The duo
are Adamu Abdullahi, Director of Consumer Protection, and Ayodele Sasegbon,
Director of General Aviation.
Sam
Adurogboye, General Manager, Public Relations, NCAA, confirmed the development
to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Saturday in Lagos.
“I can
confirm that two of the directors, Abdullahi and Sasegbon have been recalled
and their sack rescinded, ” he said.
It is not
clear why the directors were recalled.
The
government, through the Ministry of Transportation, had on Friday sacked the
duo and other directors in the aviation regulatory agency with immediate
effect.
The
directors affected by the purge were Salawu Ozigi (Director of Finance and
Accounts), Joyce Nkemakolam (Director of Aerodrome and Airspace Standards) and
Aba Ejembi (Director of Administration).
Others are
Emmanuel Ogunbami (Director of Licensing), Benedict Adeyileka (Director of
Airworthiness), Justus Wariya (Director of Air Transport Regulation) and
Austin-Amadi Ifeanyi (Director of Human Resources).
The affected directors were
immediately ordered to hand over to their next subordinate who will in the
interim take charge of the activities in their directorates.
The
government had on October 12, 2016 sacked or demoted 22 directors and general
managers of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN).
The
restructuring was based on the recommendations of the Presidential Committee
chaired by the Head of Service of the Federation, Winifred Oyo-Ita.
The
Minister of State for Aviation, Hadi Sirika, had said the restructuring would
be extended to the NCAA and the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency which were
also currently overbloated.
