The Nnamdi Azikiwe International
Airport in Abuja, will be temporarily closed from midnight on
Tuesday, March 7, 2017. This development is to
enable the Federal Airports
Authority of Nigeria,FAAN, carry out major rehabilitation of the
runway at the airport.
FAAN’s managing director, Saleh
Dunoma, confirmed this in a statement released on Thursday.
Dunoma also confirmed that the Kaduna
International Airport would serve as the alternate from March 8.
“Normal operations will re-commence
at the Abuja Airport on April 19,” he added.
Dunoma appealed to airline operators,
passengers, airport users and other stakeholders to bear with the
FAAN, saying it would continue to upgrade facilities at the nation’s
airports. He explained that this was in
compliance with the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) and
International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) annexes.
