The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has commended its Managing Director/Chief Executive, Mrs Olubunmi Kuku, who bagged the Honorary Fellowship of the Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria (CIBN).

Also praised was the Director of Airport Operations, Captain Abdullahi Mahmood, who was honoured with the traditional title of Barden Gabas of Mubi Emirate, Adamawa State, by the Emir of Mubi, His Royal Highness, Alhaji Dr Abubakar Isa Ahmadu, CFR.

The conferment of prestigious professional and traditional honours on Kuku and Mahmood was in recognition of their leadership, service and contributions to their respective fields.

Mrs Kuku received the Fellowship at CIBN Fellowship Investiture in Lagos over the weekend.

The Fellowship, the Institute’s highest membership distinction, recognises her exceptional career achievements and contributions to banking, financial services and aviation. With extensive experience spanning the Bank of Montreal, Ernst & Young, Bank PHB and the aviation sector, Mrs Kuku is now entitled to use the professional designation FCIB.

Similarly, Captain Abdullahi Mahmood has been honoured with the distinguished traditional title of Barden Gabas of Mubi Emirate, Adamawa State, under the authority of His Royal Highness, Alhaji Dr Abubakar Isa Ahmadu, CFR, Emir of Mubi.

Captain Abdullahi Mahmood’s title, historically associated with bravery and valour, recognises his leadership and service while entrusting him with greater responsibility towards promoting peace, unity and development within the Emirate.

These honours reflect the depth of professional expertise, exemplary leadership and commitment to service within FAAN’s management, while underscoring the Authority’s contributions to national development beyond the aviation sector.
