The Federal Executive Council on Wednesday approved the contract for the provision of independent power supply (at N61 per kilowatt\/hour) to the Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport, Abuja.<\/p>\n

The Minister of State for Aviation, Hadi Sirika, disclosed this to State House correspondents at the end of the council\u2019s first meeting of the year presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.<\/p>\n

Sirika said the contract was awarded following the structural challenges encountered in the construction of a new terminal at the airport being handled by a Chinese firm. The minister stated, “The new terminal building at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport, which is called the Chinese Building, has challenges of power, water, sewage, apron etc., that we are putting up there. So, we have to find a way of dealing with those challenges; we are putting up an independent power system at the airport, which has been approved by FEC.<\/p>
