Kuku Nominated As Regional Advisor For Africa On ACI

The Managing Director, Federal Airports Authority (FAAN), has been nominated to serve as a Regional Advisor representing Africa on the Airport Council International (ACI) World Governing Board.

The nomination was ratified on September 20, 2024, during the ACI Africa General Assembly held in South Africa, marking a significant milestone not only for Kuku but for the entire African aviation community.

Kuku will advocate for the unique challenges and opportunities faced by African airports. Her extensive experience in infrastructure finance and the aviation sector will be invaluable in addressing issues such as infrastructure development, safety regulations, and sustainable practices, ultimately enhancing the efficiency and competitiveness of African airports on a global scale.

In recognition of her outstanding leadership and the remarkable performance of airports under her management, Kuku and her team from the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria were also honoured with two prestigious safety awards during the ACI Africa Conference held in Johannesburg.

The accolades spotlighted the exceptional services and operational excellence of both the Port Harcourt International Airport and the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport.

These awards reflect her commitment to elevating Nigeria’s aviation standards and her vision for a thriving and resilient aviation industry across Africa. “I am deeply honoured to be elected as the Regional Advisor for Africa on the ACI World Governing Board,” said Olubunmi Kuku.

“This role is not just a personal achievement; it is a collective victory for our nation and the African aviation sector.

Together, we can foster collaboration, innovation, and excellence, ensuring that our airports are not only safe and efficient but also drivers of economic growth and development,” she added.
