Today marks a historic milestone at Port Harcourt International Airport as the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) ushers in a new era of innovation, transparency, and operational excellence.
Under the visionary leadership of Managing Director/CEO Olubunmi Kuku, the airport community witnessed the inauguration of its very first E-Gate system — a groundbreaking step toward digital transformation in Nigeria’s aviation sector.
At exactly 7:00 a.m., the atmosphere was filled with excitement and pride as FAAN staff gathered for a live simulation exercise. The moment symbolized not just the launch of a technological system, but the beginning of a new chapter in passenger experience, security efficiency, and accountable governance.
