FCC, FAAN pledge fairness in recruitment, promotion

The Federal Character Commission (FCC) and the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) have pledged to work together to ensure fairness, inclusivity, and compliance with federal character principles in recruitment, promotion, and staff deployment. During an interactive session at the FCC headquarters in Abuja, the FCC Committee on Works, Transport and Aviation, chaired by Peter Eze, committed to strengthening collaboration with FAAN to promote equitable opportunities for qualified Nigerians from all parts of the country.

FCC Chair Eze emphasized that fairness should not undermine merit, stressing that professional competence and equitable representation can be achieved simultaneously. FAAN's Managing Director and CEO, Olubunmi Onabanjo-Kuku, affirmed the authority's commitment to the federal character principle while highlighting the importance of maintaining professional standards in the aviation sector.

She also assured that FAAN would continue to adhere to the prescribed guidelines and welcomed further guidance from the FCC on procedures for notifying the commission about recruitment and promotion exercises.
