Barely 24 hours after the Federal Government announced the closure of all borders, including land, air and sea, due to the presidential election holding tomorrow, the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA), on Thursday, said Nigeria’s airspace shall remain open to flight operations.
In a statement issued by the agency’s Acting General Manager, Public Affairs, Mrs Olajumoke Adetona, all necessary measures had been put in place to ensure take off and safe landing within the period.
The government had, on Wednesday, announced the closure of all borders into the country, to prevent any distraction to the election.
While assuring of smooth flight operations within the period, NAMA, in the short statement, said “it hereby wishes to reassure all airspace users and the general public that the Nigerian airspace remains open and safe for air travel before, during and after the general election.
“The agency has, therefore, put in place all the necessary measures to ensure safe flight operations within the period.”
