NCAA to Host Landmark Aviation Security Symposium

The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) is organising an Aviation Security Awareness and Enlightenment Symposium in Lagos, aimed at promoting collaboration and strengthening the aviation security governance architecture in Nigeria. 

The event themed: “The Fundamentality of Security in Achieving the Safe Skies Goal,” will bring together key stakeholders across the aviation value chain to exchange ideas on enhancing aviation security systems.

According to the Director General of NCAA, Capt. Chris Najomo, the symposium is a landmark initiative designed to reinforce security consciousness and build a resilient aviation security ecosystem. 

He emphasised that security is the backbone of civil aviation and that a shared security culture driven by knowledge, vigilance, and cooperation is essential to protecting the skies and ensuring the safety of passengers, crew, and infrastructure.

The symposium will focus on emerging threats, coordination and collaboration between aviation operators and security agencies, the role of innovation and technology in aviation security, building a proactive and security-informed workforce, and enhancing compliance with global aviation security standards.
