FAAN’s deployment of armed security at int’l airports sparks controversy
Mixed reactions are trailing the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, FAAN’s, move to deploy gun-wielding officers of Aviation Security, AVSEC, special force across international airports in the country.
Opinion is not only divided over the development, facts regarding the increasing presence of arms bearing security personnel have also been expressed.
In separate conversations with Vanguard, some aviation security experts complained that foreign travellers who have a phobia for guns might not find their presence attractive, saying it could affect the psyche of travellers.
However, others called for the perspective to be jettisoned, explaining that the series of incidents in the 80s and 90s had made the development justifiable.
