Abuja Airport Temporarily Shut Down As Saudi Plane Blocks Runway

The Nigeria Airspace Management Agency has closed the Nnamdi Azikiwe

International Airport, Abuja, to air traffic.

It was learnt that this followed the blocade of the runway by a Saudi

Airline cargo plane, which landed around 9pm on Wednesday but

developed a minor problem after landing.

NAMA subsequently issued a Notice To Airmen on Thursday morning,

meaning that the airport had been closed to both incoming and outbound

planes.

As a result, thousands of passengers are stranded at different

airports in the country, especially those who are Abuja-bound in

Lagos, Port Harcourt, Uyo, Kaduna, Kano and Abuja among others.

Officials are said to be battling to fix the grounded cargo plane and

clear the runway.

I was even banking on paying her tuition because I don’t want her to go through what I’m going through with the student loan. -What did you go through? *I don’t
