General Manager, Corporate Affairs, Mrs. Herrienta Yakubu has confirmed the Enugu Airport runway took a new look and opened for full operations following its completion.
She said FAAN’s team of engineers led by the Managing Director, Mr. Saleh Dunoma, inspected the project and certified it as meeting the required standards; the project was, however, delayed for a few days before the runway was finally opened for full flight operations.
Yakubu also apologised to travelers and other stakeholders for the inconveniences caused by the partial closure of the runway to pave way for its rehabilitation.
During the period of closure, the airport was open for operation only between 7.00 a.m. and 3.00 p.m. to enable the contractor use the working hours to do the job and ensure the stability of the runway.
