Flight operations resume at Lagos Airport after Labour suspended strike
Flight operations have resumed at the Murtala Muhammad Airport domestic terminals in Lagos.
The flight resumption on Tuesday, June 4, comes shortly after organised Labour suspended the indefinite strike which commenced on Monday, June 3.
The General Secretary of, Air Traffic Services Senior Staff Association of Nigeria, Mr Francis Akinjole, said that the strike was “relaxed” for a week to enable the unions to continue talks with the Federal Government on a new minimum wage.
Akinjole said that all blocked access points at the domestic airport terminals I (General Aviation Terminal) and II (Murtala Muhammed Airport II, Lagos) and others had been opened.
Similarly, the President General of the Association of Nigerian Aviation Professionals (ANAP), Mr Alale Adedayo, said that the organised labour had accepted the Federal Government’s offer for continued negotiations.
Adedayo said that flight operations had re-started on the domestic wing of the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Ikeja.
