The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has announced the implementation of an e-tags payment system for all travelers at the 24 federal airports across Nigeria, starting on May 17.
This new system aims to streamline traffic flow at airport toll gates and improve overall passenger experience. Additionally, FAAN is introducing paid parking to reduce congestion and eliminate indiscriminate parking, along with measures to curb illegal car hire operations and other unauthorized activities at the airports.
Following the presidential directive that all citizens are mandated to pay for e-tags at all the 24 federal airports across the country, we wish to inform the general public that the e-tags are available for sale from Friday, 17th May, 2024 at the following locations,” FAAN said today, May 17.
“Lagos: Murtala Muhammed International Airport Lagos, Terminal 1, 5th Floor) Office of HOD Commercial. Contact: 08033713796 or 08023546030.
“Abuja: Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, HOD Commercial Office (General Aviation Terminal) Contact: 08034633527 or 08137561615.”
FAAN said there will be an option to pay in cash at the access gates for motorists without e-tags.
On May 14, Festus Keyamo, minister of aviation, announced everyone, including the president and vice-president, would pay tolls at the nation’s airports.
Keyamo said the government was losing over 82 percent of the revenue it should have earned from the access fee.
