We Are Working Out Protocol To Resume International Flight — PTF

 

Mr Boss Mustapha, Secretary to the Government of the Federation and Chairman, PTF-COVID-19, has called on Nigerians to disregard “fake news”, as the aviation sector was working out a protocol to resume international flight.

Mustapha, stated this at the daily briefing of the presidential task force on COVID-19, on Thursday in Abuja.

Minister of Aviation, Sen. Hadi Sirika, had said that no resumption date was announced for international flight operations.

He urged Nigerians to be patient and await the real date for resumption of international flights as no date has been fixed yet. According to him, “the aviation sector has been working assiduously to develop the protocols for the resumption of international air services.

“The PTF remains conscious of the significant contributions of air travels to economic growth and shall continue to push for a safe resumption.

“The next phase is for aviation regulators to engage with stakeholders to facilitate an integrated and seamless resumption of international flights.

”I plead with all Nigerians to await authentic information from the aviation authorities, discountenance fake news and speculation on dates,” Mustapha said.”
