Again, Emirates Airline suspends flight operations to Nigeria
Again, Emirates Airline has suspended flights operations to Nigeria over its inability to repatriate funds trapped in the country.
The airline said this in statement on Thursday.
According to the statement, the suspension took effect from October, 29 2022.
However, in the statement, Emirates, the flag carrier of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), disclosed that despite promises of allocation by CBN, nothing has been done.
It, therefore, decided to suspend both inbound and outbound Nigerian flight operations.
“Emirates has continued to actively seek a solution for the repatriation of the remainder of its blocked funds in Nigeria. We were encouraged by the Central Bank of Nigeria’s efforts of reviewing our request, and considered that this critical issue would be swiftly resolved with the subsequent clearance of our remaining funds,” the statement reads.
