Air Peace suspends flight Operation Due to NiMet strike
Air Peace, Nigeria’s foremost airline and the largest carrier in the West and Central Africa has announced the suspension of its flights operations nationwide due to the ongoing worker strike of Nigerian
Meteorological Agency.
A statement issued by the management of the airline yesterday said:
“Dear valued customers,
We regret to inform you that due to the ongoing strike by the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet), Air Peace is suspending all flight operations nationwide with immediate effect.
This decision is necessary because NiMet is the agency responsible for issuing CNH (Current Nowcast of Hazardous Weather) reports, which are critical for safe landings, especially during this season of heavy rainfall and thunderstorms. Without these reports from the control tower, flight safety cannot be guaranteed.
As a safety-first airline, we have chosen to act responsibly by suspending operations until NiMet resumes full service.
We understand this may cause inconvenience, and we sincerely apologize. Passengers will be contacted with updates and options for rescheduling.”
