FAAN starts sales of e-tags at airports

The FAAN verified this in a statement today.

“Following the presidential directive that all citizens are mandated to pay for e-tags at all the 24 federal airports across the country, we wish to inform the general public that the e-tags are available for sale from Friday, 17th May 2024 at the following locations,” it said.

“Lagos: Murtala Muhammed International Airport Lagos, Terminal 1, 5th Floor) Office of HOD Commercial. Contact: 08033713796 or 08023546030.

“Abuja: Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, HOD Commercial Office (General Aviation Terminal) Contact: 08034633527 or 08137561615.”

FAAN stated that motorists who do not have tags will have the option of paying with cash.

The move came just days after the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, announced that airport tolls will be collected.

He stated that the money is for everyone, including President Bola Tinubu and his vice Kashim Shettima.

“Council has approved that henceforth nobody will be exempted from paying for access into our airports,” the minister said.

“The President and the Vice President have also said they should not be excluded from this new policy.”
