NUATE adjures FG to restructure aviation agencies for efficient service delivery


A group, the National Union of Air Transport Employees (NUATE), has urged the Federal Government to restructure the various aviation agencies for efficient service delivery. 
NUATE’s Assistant General Secretary, Mr Olayinka Abioye, made the call while speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Lagos. 

NAN reports that the agencies include the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority and the Accident Investigation Bureau. 

Abioye noted that apart from reorganising the various directorates and departments within the agencies; the government should also revisit the issue of fraudulent recruitments carried out in the past. 

“My union petitioned the government some years back about several issues in the aviation sector, especially massive fraudulent recruitments. 
“These irregular recruitments whereby all manner of persons were brought into the sector have stunted the growth of staff and created a disconnect in the career progression of employees within every cadre. 
“We want the government to look into why people without prior experiences were brought into the aviation sector and given elevated positions like general managers because it does not speak well for productivity,’’ he said. 
He expressed optimism that the government of the day would look into the report of the verification carried out by the agencies following the petition and corrects the injustice.
