The Minister of Aviation, Sirika Hadi has denied reports that the federal government extended the resumption of international flights till October 2020.

In a statement on his official Twitter handle on Tuesday, Hadi said the ministry had only issued a routine 90-day Notices to Airmen.

It had earlier been reported that the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority, NCAA, issued a NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) informing stakeholders that the airspace would no longer reopen for international flights on August 1.

Hadi however said, “International Flights resumption date is not October. NAMA just issued a routine 90-day Notices to Airmen (NOTAM). In liaison with Health, Foreign Affairs & PTF COVID-19, we will announce the agreed date, regardless of the ban by Europe, UAE etc. May be earlier than October.”
