On the 23rd of March 2020, the Nigerian government shut its airspace to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus.

This decision was widely celebrated but its impact has been deeply felt in terms of financial losses with the continuous decline in the demand for air travel.

Gist Nigeria finds out how ready the Nigerian Government is for the resumption of domestic flight operations and how the country's airports can be prevented from being a vector in the spread of the global pandemic.
