Hon. Aviation Minister Federal Ministry of Aviation Annex 3, Federal Secretarial Complex Shehu Shagari Way Maitama, Abuja Nigeria

Mr. President,
Hello from Dubai. We hope this letter gets to you in good health.

With a heavy heart, I write to let you know of Emirates’ planned reductions in operations to Nigeria. Emirates will be forced to reduce flights from Dubai to Lagos from 11 to 7 per week beginning August 15, 2022. We had no choice but to take this action in order to mitigate Emirates’ ongoing losses as a result of funds being blocked in Nigeria.
