The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has
apologized to passengers and other airport users who witnessed a temporary
power outage at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, on Friday.
FAAN in a statement by its Acting General Manager, Corporate
Affairs, Faithful A. Hope-Ivbaze (Mrs.) said the outage was a result of
Friday’s rain, which came with very fierce winds and storms.
It was gathered that passengers were on Saturday
stranded at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos after a power
outage hit a section of the airport.
It was learnt that the departure lounge of the International
Airport was the most affected on Saturday.
Reacting, Ivbaze said the natural occurrence affected one of
the feeders and consequently resulted in the temporary disruption of power supply
to the D wing of the airport.
She added that power has since been restored.
“However, our engineers quickly discovered the fault and
liaised with the Ejigbo duty/area control office of the Power Holding Company
of Nigeria to resolve the problem. Normalcy has since been restored in the
affected area.
“FAAN is Committed to our core values of Safety, Security
and Comfort.”
