The management of Arik Air (in Receivership) has suspended with immediate effect one of its  staff caught by the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) for soliciting bribe at the domestic wing of the Murtala Mohammed International, Ikeja, Lagos, pending further investigations.

A statement by the airline’s management said that while the management conducts its own internal investigation, “we wish to reassure FAAN of our cooperation on this matter if further investigation is required.

We fully support what FAAN is doing to rid our airports of this menace of corruption,” Arik Air said.
