The aviation workers, under the aegis of the national union of air transport employees (NUATE) and air transport services senior staff association of Nigeria (ATSSSAN), said the management of NAHCO had commenced negotiations with its workers.

The Deputy General Secretary, ATSSSAN, Frances Akinjole, confirmed this to newsmen.

The strike grounded flights at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport yesterday when the NAHCO staff members walked out of the international airport.

This left several passengers stranded at the international airport.

However, NAHCo Group Executive Director, Dr. Olusola Obabori, stated:  “We regret all the inconveniences. We understand the power of negotiation. The company, which has arguably the best welfare package among the local players in the aviation industry, will do all that is necessary to make its workforce happy, even as it delights its customers.

“This situation would be resolved speedily as it is detrimental to the staff, the Company, and its esteemed clients.”
