 Hike in Airfares: Reps seek reduction of 50% in airport charges and auxiliary taxes

The House also drew attention to the plight of retirees and contributors under the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Pension Fund Limited, who are facing delayed payment of their pension and gratuities, while calling for action.
