Flights at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport have
been rescheduled as a result of the protest by the National Association of
Nigerian Students.
It was gathered that the inability of the travellers to
enter the airport caused the development.
The domestic terminal one also known as the General Aviation
Terminal and terminal two operated by Bi-Courtney Aviation Service Limited of
the Airport and the MMA were shut down by the students, which prevented
passengers from entering the airport. For this reason, some local and
international flights were re-scheduled.
NANS stormed the MMA area Monday morning in protest against
the lingering strike action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.
The protest attracted the presence of the African Action
Congress presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, who joined the students and
assured them of support.
NANS is asking the Federal Government to resolve the ongoing
strike action by ASUU, which began on February 14, 2022.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi
Gbajabiamila, has, however, scheduled a Tuesday meeting with the leadership of
the ASUU led by its President, Professor Emmanuel Osodeke, on possible
solutions to the lingering issues..
