The Federal Government has announced that the Muritala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA) terminal will be shut down temporarily starting from October 1, 2023.

The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, announced this on Thursday, directing all international airlines to vacate the terminal one of the airport to give room for total maintenance work.
