Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

A fire outbreak on Thursday has caused the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, FAAN, to reroute all flight operations from the E wing of the Murtala Muhammad International Airport, MMIA.

The fire had reportedly begun in the early hours of Thursday after smoke was detected at E54 bridge.

The Airport Rescue and Firefighting Services, ARFFS, officials were immediately mobilised to douse the fire which had cut off the electricity supply at the section of the old international terminal.

The FAAN Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Mrs. Obiageli Orah, had confirmed the unfortunate incident.

According to Orah, the quick intervention of the airport firefighters saved the situation.

“Initial suspicions point to sparks from an electrical unit as the cause of the fire but a thorough investigation is ongoing to ascertain the cause of the fire. The incident, which had escalated into a fire, was brought under control by 06:41 hrs.” She said.

“Efforts to ventilate the smoke from the building are in progress. In the meantime however, all flight operations in Terminal 1 of MMA have been diverted to the D Wing,” Orah concluded.
