FG Extends Airport Closure By Two Weeks

The Aviation Minister Hadi Sirika says Airports will not open for
commercial flight tomorrow.
Sirika announced the extension of airports closure by two weeks.
The airports, which were initially shut as part of efforts to control
the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) were projected to reopen on April
23.
On March 23, the Federal Government announced the closure of the
Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos and the Nnamdi
Azikiwe International Airport Abuja for one month in the first
instance as part of measures to combat the coronavirus scourge.
The Minister explained that the new projected date of opening of
airport operations is consequent upon the two weeks extension of the
lockdown by President Muhammadu Buhari.
The extension was contained in a statement issued in Abuja by the
Director of Public Affairs in the Aviation ministry, James Odaudu.
