TIMEHRI - Chief Executive Officer of the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA), Ramesh Ghir, is livid over comments made by a Fly Jamaica Airways executive about the perceived lax security at the Airport.
On Saturday during a press conference Director of Finance and Commerce Roxanne Reece stated that she would like to see a more reliable and efficient security system at CJIAC.
However, Ghir responded. Below is his full statement:
“It is very disappointing and unfortunate that a director of Fly Jamaica would choose to publicly address her concerns about drug incidents at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) without first engaging the airport authorities about such anxiety.
As Chairman of the Airport Security Committee and head of the Airport Corporation I can safely say that no such concern was ever raised with us; not even at the level of the Board of Directors.
We will be happy to engage the staff and directors of Fly Jamaica to address any security related questions that they may have. The airport’s Corporation and its Security Committee remain steadfast to continuously working with its stakeholders to improve passengers’ experience.
We remain very excited and look forward to Fly Jamaica getting on board!”
