The relocation of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) headquarters from Abuja back to Lagos has been a somewhat recent and controversial topic.
Here's a summary of the situation as of today, January 19, 2024:

Background:

FAAN headquarters was originally located in Lagos, the economic and aviation hub of Nigeria.

In 2020, under the previous administration, it was relocated to Abuja, the federal capital. This move was criticized by some stakeholders as unnecessary and wasteful.
In January 2023, the new Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, ordered the relocation back to Lagos.
This decision was based on several factors, including:

Efficiency: Reducing operational costs and travel expenses by being closer to the majority of airports and activities.

Proximity to stakeholders: Facilitating better engagement with airlines, regulatory bodies, and other key players in the aviation sector.

Resource utilization: Avoiding duplicating infrastructure and maximizing existing facilities in Lagos.

Current status:
The relocation process is ongoing, with some staff already moved back to Lagos.

There are mixed reactions to the move.
Some stakeholders, including unions and aviation workers, support it, while others, including some critics of the current government, see it as a misplaced priority or a potential source of corruption.

There are concerns about the cost and logistics of the relocation, as well as its impact on staff and their families.
