The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) confirmed this development, stating that both landings and takeoffs of planes have resumed as usual.

The update was shared by the Special Assistant on Media and Public Affairs to the MD of FAAN, Gbenga Oloeunpomi, on his X (formerly Twitter) handle.

He wrote, “Update: Runway has been opened, and planes are now landing and taking off. Thanks for your kind patience.”

LEADERSHIP reports that the runway was earlier closed to flights after a cargo airplane skidded off the runway earlier on Wednesday, December 11, 2024, triggering a temporary closure. The incident involved an Allied Air Cargo aircraft with registration number 5N-JRT, which had five crew members on board but no reported injuries.
