The FAAN’s spokesperson further stated that “while we advise intending passengers to make early preparations towards completing their travel requirements in good time, we also want to re-emphasise that protocol officers and orderlies of dignitaries will not be allowed into the airport except they are travelling alongside their principals.
“Only travelling passengers will be allowed into the airports”, Yakubu maintained.
