The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria FAAN has kick started the fumigation of three International airports in the country namely, Lagos, Abuja and Port-harcourt against the covid-19 ahead of the re-opening.
The fumigation maybe the signal that operators have been waiting for after two months of non-flight Operations.
