“It’s been suspended, and they’ve agreed to commence negotiation on the salary issue with us,” he said.

This comes after the Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Aviation, Nnolim Nnaji has called for immediate restraints over the ongoing industrial dispute between the Nigerian Aviation Handling Company, (NAHCO) and its workers.

Recall that the handling company’s workers suspended operations over alleged non-payment of salaries by the management.

The development thus created flight disruption across the country, both domestic and international.

However, in response to the development, Nnaji asked the management of the ground Handling company to immediately enter into dialogue with the leadership of the union to avert further disruption of flight operations across the country.
