The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has on Wednesday October 6 closed the drop off zone at the departure area of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport(MMIA), Lagos.
This was disclosed in Lagos on Wednesday, by the FAAN General Manager, Corporate Affairs, Mrs Henrietta Yakubu.
According to Yakubu, "it became necessary to notify passengers, airport users, stakeholders and the public that the closure takes effect from October 6."
She said that "the authority had put measures in place to ease vehicular and human facilitation in the area of interest."
She added that “the temporary closure was to allow for the completion of the ongoing canopy installation works at the concourse of the old international building."
“However, to ease vehicular and human facilitation around the area, the authority has temporarily opened the drop off zone of the new international terminal to serve airport users, while the project lasts,”
“Covered walkways had been put in place to link the old and new terminal and authority would also open the new departure bridge to serve as an exit to motorists.” She said.
“We appeal to airport users to bear with us while the project is being completed”
“We will like the passengers and other stakeholders to comply with directives from security and traffic agents deployed to ensure orderliness.” Henrietta stated
