The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has called out the head of the DSS at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja, Safiyanu Abba, for allegedly slapping an airport security officer who cautioned him for obstructing airport COVID-19 safety protocols.

In a statement released on their Twitter page, FAAN alleged that Mr Abba deliberately obstructed security processes.

The statement reads:

“We note with dismay that Mr Safiyanu Abba, the Head of DSS at NAIA deliberately obstructed airport Security process, and slapped an Aviation Security Officer who was performing his duty by calling on Mr Safiyanu Abba to desist from doing so.
