The Managing Director of FAAN, Captain Rabiu Yadudu was on ground to declare the training open. He motivated the personnel explaining that the progress of aviation anywhere is dependent on confidence instilled in the system. He stressed that FAAN is doing its utmost to entrench confidence by investing in safety critical infrastructure. It is designed to ensure training and confidence to use these equipment when called on is there.

He told them that the key thing in aviation besides training had a lot to do with confidence as the business is driven by confidence of those handling all the areas especially the unseen safety critical areas of aviation.

He said that the watch word is safety and that is the reason FAAN will spare no expense to ensure that staff, especially those in safety critical areas are well trained and motivated to carry out their key responsibility.

“You can have 100% training but if you don’t have confidence then you cannot do it. This business is confidence; the single thing that is keeping aviation is confidence,” Yadudu said.
