To encourage creativity, passion, dedication to duty and excellence, the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has introduced the Face of Aviation Consumer Protection (FACP).
Mrs. Ifueko Abdulmalik an Assistant General Manager Consumer Protection at the NCAA was crowned the maiden Face of Aviation Consumer Protection of the Authority.
The crown is for the period of one year, after which, another face will emerge.
This initiative is the brainchild of the NCAA Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Mr. Michael Achimugu.
It is also part of the rebranding exercise of the Consumer Protection Department, and the Consumer Protection Officers (CPOs), who are the frontline staff of the Authority that interfaces with passengers on a daily basis.
The rebranding commenced with the launch of new dress code for the CPOs for easy identification at all the airports across the country, a hotline for the lodgement of complaints and the Face of Aviation Consumer Protection.
The winner was unveiled on Saturday after the launch of the new dress code of a sharp crested blue waist coat with modern appeal, a white shirt and hat, which is in sync with the industry.
The new dress will complement the T-shirts and the traditional attires already in use.
Commenting on the maiden Face of Aviation Consumer Protection NCAA, Mr. Michael Achimugu said Mrs. Ifueko emerged because “she represent diligence and efficiency just like other CPOs and has done her job with candour, has a vast knowledge of the regulations and has been the interface between the authority and the airlines on consumer protection matters.”
