Passengers were stranded at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, as Nigeria’s aviation workers embarked on a two-day warning strike across the country.
The PUNCH reports that the strike follows a meeting called by the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority which ended in a stalemate on Sunday.
The unions comprising the National Union of Air Transport Employees, Air Transport Services Senior Staff Association of Nigeria; the National Association of Aircraft Pilots and Engineers and the Association of Nigerian Aviation Professionals, are demanding, among other things, that the planned demolition of aviation agencies’ headquarters in Lagos be halted.
