Abstract
The growth of civil aviation has seen development in civil aviation technology. Over
the years, there have been series of attacks at airports and onboard aircraft's which
have necessitated the intervention of both international and domestic organs in the
bid to repress and suppress such threats to aviation security. The intervention has
come in form of enacting Conventions, legislation s and regulations which contain
measures to be put to improve the situation. This study is therefore a review of
Nigeria's intervention to such security threats. It is a review and an analysis of
Nigeria's aviation safety and security legislation s and regulations, its aviation
authorities and the roles of international bodies such as the ICAO, IATA and other
States. These bodies and organs have played various roles in the improvement of
aviation safety and security and if such roles are carried out in accordance with
relevant provisions put in place, there is a high possibility of totally eliminating
aviation security threats and incidents, making air transport safer and more secure to
travel with.
