NCAA Temporarily Suspends ‘No Pay, No Service’ Rule to Ease Fuel Cost Burden

The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority has paused its “no pay, no service” directive after extensive talks with affected carriers. The suspension applies to 11 domestic airlines facing outstanding statutory remittances. Director-General Capt. Chris Najomo said the move reflects industry challenges, notably rising Jet A1 prices. He stressed that the pause is not a waiver and airlines must still settle debts or agree repayment plans. President Tinubu earlier approved a 30% discount on fees owed to aviation agencies, including the NCAA, to cushion the impact of fuel hikes. The regulator will continue structured engagements to recover obligations while maintaining sector stability and safety.
