The
Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), has announced that flight
operations at the Benin Airport will be shut from Saturday, June 20
till Friday, July 10, to facilitate rehabilitation work on the airport’s
runway.
The agency, in a statement, explained that the
Asaba Airport and the Osubi Airstrip in Warri, Delta State, could be
used as alternatives to the Benin airport while the closure lasts.
It
added that the runway rehabilitation work is part of a routine
maintenance programme designed by the authority to ensure that airport
runways and other ancillary facilities do not fall below standards
recommended by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
