The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), in partnership with MTN Nigeria, has launched free WiFi services at Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) Terminal 2, Lagos, and Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.
The official launch at MMIA Terminal 2 was led by FAAN’s Managing Director/CEO Mrs Olubunmi Kuku, represented by the Director of Airport Operations, Captain Abdullahi Mahmood. Lynda Saint-Nwafor, Chief Enterprise Business Officer of MTN Nigeria, represented CEO Karl Toriola.
The WiFi service, which is completely free for passengers and airport users, is set to expand to the MMIA temporary terminal and other international airports across Nigeria within the next three months.
In his address, Captain Mahmood described the launch as a milestone for FAAN and a benchmark for digital infrastructure and passenger experience at Nigerian airports. He said the partnership demonstrates how effective Public-Private Partnership (PPP) alignment can modernize infrastructure and strengthen Nigeria’s digital economy.
