Nigeria to Install Electronic Gates at More International Airports

The federal government is set to deploy electronic gates at three more international airports in Nigeria. This initiative aims to improve the efficiency and experience for passengers.

Currently, e-gates have been installed at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport. The installation at Murtala Muhammed International Airport has also been completed and is ready for commissioning.

On Friday night, the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, inspected the User Acceptance Test (UAT) of the e-gates at Terminal 2 of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport. He was accompanied by the Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Kemi Nandap.

Minister Tunji-Ojo mentioned that the remaining e-gates at Murtala Muhammed International Airport will be fully installed within the next few weeks. He emphasized that these e-gates will significantly enhance the passenger experience and streamline the facilitation process at the airports.
