The advisory reads; “this is to inform all our esteemed passengers that Azman Air will not operate any of its scheduled flights on Saturday, 25th and Sunday 26th February, 2023 due to restriction of movement resulting from the impending General Elections. Operations will resume accordingly after the Elections.”
Air Peace, in its statement to the public titled ‘No scheduled flight operations on February 25, 2023,’ told members of the public that there will be no scheduled flights on February 25, 2023, due to the conduct of the Presidential and National Assembly elections.A source with Arik Air, one of Nigeria’s major carriers, equally told journalists that the airline will not fly on the 25th due to the elections.
“An election is a national event and since airlines are of this nation, it stands to reason that any law guiding the elections equally guides us. Our democracy is not as ripe as that of the United States where they do not halt everything to vote,” it said. This directive may not affect foreign airlines’ flying into the country as they may choose to operate their schedules and drop passengers in the country to find their way.
It is also learnt that Air Traffic Controllers of the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency would be on duty as essential services to guide aircraft as over-flyers or into the Nigerian airspace.
