Abuja Airport shut down as Saudi Airline cargo blocks runway
The Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, has been shut to air traffic by the Nigeria Airspace Management Agency following the blocade of the runway by a Saudi Airline Cargo.
DailyPost has gathered that the plane which landed around 9pm on Wednesday developed a minor problem after landing, and blocked the runway.
Owing to the development, NAMA issued a notice to Airmen on Thursday morning of a temporary closure of the airport, pending when the problem is corrected.
The development has affected both incoming and outbound planes, leaving passengers stranded at different airports across the country.
DailyPost has gathered that there is an ongoing effort to clear the runway, but response appears a little slow.
