4 Days After Presidential, NASS Elections, Airlines Reduce Flights By 60%

As the Presidential election results collation continues amidst tension across the country, airlines operating domestic operations have continued to carry out skeletal operations over shortage of passengers, Daily Trust can report. 

Checks at the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Ikeja Lagos yesterday showed that all the domestic terminals recorded very slight passenger movements.

It was gathered that airlines have reduced flights by less than 50 percent. 

Daily Trust reports that virtually all the 11 domestic airlines including Air Peace, Azman Air, Max Air, among others, suspended flights on election day on Saturday to resume on Monday while only international airlines were still operating. 

But despite the resumption of operations by the airlines, they still continue to operate skeletally due to the absence of passengers.
