Aviation Unions to Protest Nationwide against FG’s Plan to Concession Airports
Labour unions in the aviation industry have said they have concluded plans to embark on nationwide industrial protest to kick against federal government’s plan to concession the nation’s airports
They described airport concession as a crime against the Nigerian people and insisted the plan must be resisted frontally. “As a matter of fact, our well-considered contention that the ICRC has not performed due diligence on the concession programme, and that the ministry has not acted altruistically in the matter is borne out of our knowledge that both the Ministry and the ICRC have gravely failed to comply with the established PPP due process.”
“A major pre-requisite for enabling a PPP, according to ICRC regulation, is that, ‘The public entity should have enabling authority to transfer its responsibility – enabling legislative and policy framework or an administrative order to that effect”.
