AVIATION WORKERS PROTEST PLANNED CONCESSION OF PORT HARCOURT AIRPORT. (PHOTO).


 

Aviation workers at the Port Harcourt International Airport staged a solidarity march on Wednesday to express their opposition to the Federal Government's alleged plan to concession the airport without their involvement. The workers, under the umbrella of the Air Transport Services Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (ATSSSAN) and the Association of Nigeria Aviation Professionals (ANAP), carried placards urging the government to include them in the concession process.


Razaq Animashaun, Chairman of ATSSSAN, emphasized that the workers are not against concessions but are opposed to any process that lacks transparency and excludes key stakeholders. "If they want to concession the airport, the union should be involved so that we can know where our staff belongs to because we don't want job losses," Animashaun said.¹


Akagha Emmanuel, ANAP Chairman at the airport, questioned the government's decision to proceed with the concession plans despite a pending court case. "They should carry the union along. We have a case in court already... We want them to carry the union along, carry pensioners along, carry the staff along," Emmanuel said.


The Federal Government had announced plans to concession five Nigerian airports, including the Port Harcourt International Airport, last October. However, the workers' unions are seeking greater transparency and involvement in the concession process to protect their interests and prevent job losses
