Policy Meant To Block Revenue Leakages
Passengers and motorists were stranded for hours on Sunday as confusion and heavy traffic gridlock trailed the enforcement of a cashless toll payment system introduced by the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) at major airports in Lagos and Abuja.
The new policy, which took effect on March 1, 2026, officially bars cash payments at airport toll gates, mandating motorists to make use of prepaid access cards or electronic payment channels before gaining entry.
