171

Passengers at Abuja’s Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport are currently stranded and unable to continue their travels owing to a workers union demonstration.

According to reports, the demonstrators are members of the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress.

This follows the recent assassination of the NLC’s National President, Joe Ajaero, in Imo State.

The aviation unions across the country jointly declared the suspension of all flights to Owerri, Imo State, from every airport in Nigeria.
