Air Peace has suspended all flight operations across the country following the strike embarked upon by the staff of Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet).
This was contained in a statement signed by Air Peace’s Head of Corporate Communications, Dr Ejike Ndiulo, on Wednesday.
Ndiulo noted that the decision was necessary because NiMet is the agency responsible for Current Nowcast of Hazardous Weather (CNH) reports, which he said is critical for safe landings, especially during this season of heavy rainfall and thunderstorms.
He said without these reports from the control tower, flight safety could not be guaranteed.
“Due to the ongoing NiMet strike and the unavailability of CNH (hazardous weather) reports required for safe landings, Air Peace has suspended all flight operations nationwide until the strike is over.
“Your safety is our top priority. We appreciate your understanding and will share updates as the situation unfolds,” he said.
