No fewer than 10 directors at the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority NCAA have been fired as part of ongoing restructuring in the regulatory body.

The directors affected includes Alhaji Adamu Abdullahi (Director of Consumer Protection), Capt. Ayodele Sasegbon (Director of General Aviation), Alhaji Salawu Ozigi (Director of Finance and Accounts), Barr. Aba Ejembi (Director of Administration) .
Others are Engr. Benedict Adeyileka (Director of Airworthiness), Mr. Justus Wariya (Director of Air Transport Regulation), and Mr. Austin-Amadi Ifeanyi (Director of Human Resources).
Dr. Joyce Nkemakolam (Director of Aerodrome and Airspace Standards) and Mr. Emmanuel Ogunbami (Director of Licensing) were no longer with the regulatory body as at the time of this mass sack.
The affected directors were immediately ordered to handover to the next in command in their various directorates who will in the interim take charge of alctivities in their directorates.
The General Manager, Public Affairs, NCAA, Mr. Sam Adurogboye in a chat confirmed the development, but stated that he had no information on the reason for the sack, adding that they were all political appointees.
