Nigerians will begin to enjoy Wi-Fi services at all national airports in the country, as the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has partnered Nigeria’s multinational telecommunications company, Globacom Ltd.

The facility will enable passengers waiting at airports and other airport users to connect to the internet through their smart phones, tablets, laptops and other smart devices.

Speaking on the development, the Managing Director of FAAN, Mr. Saleh Dunoma, said the launch was a realization of the Aviation Ministry’s commitment to improve passenger experience in the country.

Dunoma, who was speaking at the launch of the facility at the international wing of the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos, said that one of the numerous complaints the authority had encountered was lack of internet connectivity at the airports and urged Globacom to extend the Wi-Fi coverage of to the new buildings under construction at the airport any time they are ready.

Also speaking on the development, Glo’s coordinator, business solutions, Mr. Ike Oraekwuotu, expressed the company’s delight to “bring Nigeria up to speed with one of the best trends in the aviation industry worldwide by introducing ultra high speed Wi-Fi data experience for travellers and other users of our airports, beginning with Nigeria’s flagship airport.”

He further revealed that the facility, which would be available at both the domestic and the international wings of the Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt airports was made possible by the great vision and passion demonstrated by the ministry of aviation and FAAN “working diligently with Globacom.”

He disclosed that the second phase of the project would cover 12 airports across the country adding that “Globacom is working hard to ensure that this is delivered in the next 10 weeks.”

Like seriously

Can there be any free service in Nigeria. If it happens, then i believe the "Change" is working.

Eventually, the cost of this project will be passed on the customers/flyers.

Good one from FAAN.

Since

it will be faster going to Google office than using the so-called free Wifi
