Aviation Unions To Disrupt Flight Activities, Declare Indefinite Strike by HeWrites(m): 7:38am On May 22, 2019
The Aviation unions made up of the National Union of Air Transport Employees (NUATE), the Air Transport Services Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (ATSSSAN), Association of Nigeria Aviation Professionals (ANAP) and the National Association of Air Transport Pilots and Employees (NAAPE), have declared an indefinite strike that will take effect from tomorrow, Wednesday May 22nd. This means flight activities in all airports will be disrupted, Igbere Tv reports.


The unions in a joint statement released and made available to Igbere Tv, said the strike is coming after the expiration of an earlier seven days ultimatum it issued to the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) over failure to meet their demands. Following the industrial action, flight activities will be disrupted.


The statement as obtained by Igbere Tv in part reads;
“Having therefore exhausted all efforts and patience on the issues, we are left with no other option. Our unions hereby direct all staff of NCAA nationwide to commence an indefinite industrial action with effect from 0500hrs on Wednesday, 22nd May, 2019.”

shocked

The country is on autopilot and in a state of complete comatose. If you have the chance to leave Nigeria for countries like Canada etc please do. It is an irresponsible country.

rusher14:
What are their demands?

In summary, when NCAA was created, the staff strength was about 300 and the organogram reflected this. Now with expansion of the aviation industry, NCAA has more staff and thus the organogram and structure has to be expanded to factor in this growth and promotions according to the union but the minister and the DG said no and rather than expand the organogram, they actually merged departments which stifles growth even further.

The condition of service will ensure better pay package for NCAA. The taxes on your ticket is collected by NCAA and shared with other aviation agencies. It's sad that NCAA doesn't even pay as well as the operators it regulates which can cause compromise especially since aviation is sensitive and NCAA according to the union's have been trying as there has been no air crash for commercial flights for a while .

Finally the inauguration of the governing board of NCAA which buhari has appointed for over a year now is long overdue. Without the board, the DG and the minister make all the decisions without any oversight. According to the union NCAA doesn't have one functional staff bus yet the DG and the minister in the last three weeks recently purchased 21 2018 brand new Toyota Hilux .

There may be other issues as seen in the memo but this is my understanding to an extent
