The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has December 2025 to achieve full International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO).

The is contained in a statement by the authority’s Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Mr Henry Agbebire in Lagos.

The Managing Director of FAAN, Mrs Olubunmi Kuku, made this known at the unveiling of its ISO Policy aimed at institutionalising a culture of service quality, operational safety, and sustainable practice across all FAAN managed airports.

Kuku was represented by the FAAN Director of Human Resources and Administration, Dr Luqman Emiola.

The new policy, she said, integrates two standards, ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System (QMS) and ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System (EMS), into a single framework.

”FAAN has achieved about 70 per cent completion of the certification process, with external auditors scheduled to arrive in November to assess compliance and close identified gaps.

”We are targetting full ISO certification by December 2025.

”The ISO policy reinforces the operational principle that, if it is not documented, it is considered not done,” she said.

She noted that the policy provided FAAN with a working document to guide internal audits across directorates.

Kuku said that it would ensure that every action reflected it’s commitment to service quality, safety, environmental stewardship, and operational excellence.

She reiterated the authority’s dedication to managing Nigeria’s airports in line with international best practices, ensuring safe, secure, efficient, and environmentally responsible operations.

The authority also reaffirmed its commitment to protecting the environment, supporting host communities, and providing a conducive workplace for staff.

Also speaking at the unveiling, the Director of Special Duties, FAAN, Mrs Obiageli Orah highlighted the purpose and importance of the ISO Policy.

According to her, the audit process is designed to measure FAAN’s commitment to quality, business conduct, customer satisfaction and environmental responsibility.

The Transmission Company of Nigeria has announced that there would be electricity outages in parts of Enugu State and Abuja, respectively, due to maintenance of its Kubwa and New Haven Enugu 132/33 kilovolt substations.

The spokesperson of TCN disclosed this in a separate statement released on the agency’s X account on Tuesday.

According to TCN, the scheduled Enugu-New Haven maintenance would take effect from October 22, 2025, to Thursday, October 31, 2025, between 9:00am and 5:00pm daily.

Consequently, TCN stated that there would be disruption of bulk electricity supply to one 33-kilovolt feeder per day on a rotational basis during the period.

“TCN wishes to clarify that this is not a total system shutdown for Enugu State. To minimise disruption, the work has been carefully planned to affect only one 33 kV feeder per day on a rotational basis. Given that Enugu State is supplied by twenty-four (24) 33 kV feeders, this arrangement ensures that most parts of the state will continue to receive a power supply while the maintenance is ongoing.

“The exercise requires the temporary isolation of specific 33 kV feeders to ensure the safety of TCN technical crews and the protection of equipment under maintenance.

“Consequently, customers in areas served by these feeders will experience power interruption only on the day their specific feeder is isolated,” the statement reads.

In Abuja, the disruption, which is expected to take effect on 21st October 2025, would affect areas in Kubwa, including Army Resettlement, Papal Ground, Aso Garden, Nydren Supermarket, Back of AT4, Back of Mobil, Zenith Bank, FO1, Kubwa Extension, Chikakore Community, Dantata Estate, IITA Farms, Royal Champion Church, the Kubwa area and environs.

“The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) notifies the public of scheduled preventive maintenance at the Kubwa 132/33 kV Transmission Substation on October 21, 2025, from 11 am to 3 pm.

“The exercise will involve the replacement of a 33 kV circuit breaker with a new one and will require an interruption of bulk power supply to the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) from Kubwa Substation,” the statement reads.
