A section of the road leading to the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), in Lagos will be closed in the early hours of Saturday
The development is sequel to the conducting of the annual 10km walk/jog exercise of the Nigeria Airforce.
The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) announced the partial closure of the lagos airport road ahead of time for motorists and airport users’ awareness.
The Agency however assured that all effort would be put in place to minimise the effect of the exercise on passengers and other airport access road users.
The release reads :
“FAAN wishes to inform passengers, airport users, and the general public that the Nigerian Airforce would be conducting their annual 10km walk/jog exercise which would result to a partial closure of the Airport access road between Murtala Muhammed Airport Terminal 2 (MMA2) and the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) on Saturday 18th of October 2025, from 06:00hrs.
During this period, security personnel would be deployed along access roads to direct traffic and ensure safety. This does not in any way disrupt airport operations, as scheduled flights would operate normally.
The access roads would be completely opened immediately after the exercise.
Passengers and airport users are therefore advised to plan their movements accordingly, as localised traffic disruptions may occur around the airport vicinity during the exercise.
