The Acting Director General, Civil Aviation Authority (Ag. DGCA), Capt. Chris Najomo has reiterated that staff welfare remains his priority, declaring that he is not distracted by campaign of calumny launched against his person.
Capt. Najomo disclosed that his determination is to provide a conducive working environment and set the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) on the growth path.
The Ag. DGCA made this commitment recently during an unscheduled tour of office facilities at the Authority’s Headquarters in Abuja.
Some of the areas inspected include offices of the directors and the staff pool offices.
According to him, the purpose of this tour was to have first-hand feedback from members of the staff.
The dominant complaints expressed by staff revolved around inadequate office accommodation and inadequate working tools like computers, printers, scanners and photocopiers.
The Ag.DGCA announced to the delight of staff that more office equipment would be provided, including building another office complex which would include a staff clinic, canteen, and creche.
“You will get what you need. You are getting it already. People who were stagnated, I have promoted and their arrears paid. This is what some people don’t want. As you cooperate with me, I will cooperate with you. I have only been the Ag.DG for six months but you have seen all the achievements. Don’t be downcast. The training and retraining will go on. The infrastructure will go on and so much more,” he assured.
“You have seen what has been happening lately; but one thing is certain, it is only God that promotes. In the last month, I have seen all manner of petitions to distract me but I will not be distracted. I will do what is right to keep NCAA running,” Capt. Najomo further assured.
