Guys read that statement carefully, this people think they can play with our intelligence. They keep repeating that passengers are free to be “dropped-off” by any means they chose but are VERY SILENT on “Pick-up” which is the bone of contention here!!! Guys be wise until they address this issue fully. 7 Likes |

pawesome:that's the issue here. She didn't tell us who were the people who put up that sign post in the first place. If what she said is true, then those people who put up that signal are very wrong and should be punished. It's that simple. 1 Like |

I suspect the Airport Taxi drivers are behind this. Uber, Taxify and co are really punching them hard and instead of them to conform with modern times, they sit and hang around the airport doing nothing. |

fujirice: That was true of their first statement, it's not true of this statement. Go back to the first post in this thread and read the sentence in bold. It reads: The Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) says passengers are free to use whatever means of transportation they deem fit to arrive or depart the airports across the country. 1 Like |

maynation: FAAN and Airport cab drivers work hand in hand to extort people with outrageous fares, the policy is from FAAN(even if they deny it), as an Uber driver once told me to play along if asked by any Airport secuirities or officials and tell them we are friends.. what Uber would charge you 6k for airport cab would start at 15k-20k 1 Like |

Good development. Government must think of viability of alternatives before banning. |

If FAAN is denying it, then it is no doubt the handiwork of those archaic yellow and black taxis and their union. They went as far as attacking Bolt and Uber drivers some months ago. We were left stranded and had no choice than to use them. |

itsme01: In Abuja, the NURTW taxis, FAAN officials and Abuja environmental protection board arrest the Uber guys, seize their phones to check for the Uber app. There should be a lawsuit against the stupid authorities. And the procedings should be published till the end of the matter. 1 Like |

They should understand that life is evolving, everything changing on a fast track. They better go register for uber / taxify, instead of sitting and waiting for who to extort in the name of airport tax 1 Like |

iSufferFools: Not true! FAAN is just playing mind games with Nigerians, because they know we don’t comprehend things beyond the headlines and do not have time to read the details and fine print. The FAAN rebuttal did not contradict the Sign post that was erected, neither did the Sign post contradict the FAAN rebuttal/statement. The Sign post stated that the car sharing services are not allowed to pick up from the airport and was silence on drop-off, which means drop-off are allowed. The FAAN rebuttal statement states that car sharing services are allowed to drop-off at the airport, which the Sign post did not ban, but was silence on pick-ups, which the sign post ban. So both statements are consistent, one and the same, I don’t see any contradiction; rather there appear to be some behind the scene coordination. 1 Like |

The billboard bears the authority's logo and situated within its jurisdiction how come they're not aware of it until now? So its possible for someone to place a directive at the airport to charge anything they like without them being aware? This country and its anyhowness sef ![]() naptu2: |

bigtt76: That's the big issue. Although they said that the billboard has been removed, but they also need to state the identity of the person that erected the billboard and the punishment that has been meted out to the person. 2 Likes 2 Shares

FAAN, just clear the parks and concourses of our airports please. Rid them of all commercial taxis and taxi drivers. Airports are not motor parks. End the touting. It is putting your facilities into disrepute. |
Re: "Uber, Bolt Not Banned At Airports" - FAAN by Reference(m): 8:30am On Dec 11, 2019 |
Comedian2019: It is so annoying. How can you drive into an airport that manages a paltry twenty or thirty flights a day and you are accosted with hundreds of vehicles in the carpark, mainly taxis, blocking every space and turning the place to a market. What are they doing there. FAAN should have no interest in how people get or leave the airports. It is not their business. If they must have a stake in taxis then they should build a seperate carpark for them with a dedicated access to the departure lounge. 2 Likes |

Most of the FAAN officials have several airport taxis as their side hustle. That's a fact. Uber/Bolt has reduced how much their drivers remit. 1 Like |
