The Founder of Stanbic IBTC Bank Atedo Peterside has expressed his dismay over the Niger Republic Decision to close the country’s airspace.
Atedo made this known via his official Twitter handle on Monday.
He said, “Closure of Niger Republic airspace will increase the cost of flights from Nigeria to Europe.
If Burkina Faso and Mali join Niger in declining overflight rights to Nigerian bound aircraft, then inbound and outbound flights from Nigeria to Europe will become very expensive.
