Air Peace has suspended all flight operations across Nigeria due to a strike by the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet). The airline prioritises passenger safety, requiring NiMet’s weather updates for safe landings amid the rainy season. This critical service absence compels Air Peace to halt flights until NiMet resumes.
The suspension arises as NiMet workers strike over remuneration issues, threatening further disruptions in Nigeria’s aviation sector. Meanwhile, the Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo, inaugurated the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Airport. A focus on Abuja news and Lagos news should highlight Air Peace’s commitment to passenger safety.
Key Takeaways:
- Air Peace halts flights due to NiMet strike for safety reasons.
- Strike impacts nationwide flights, with potential wider disruptions.
- New airport inaugurated in Minna amid these challenges.
