Commercial flights resumed on Monday May 23, at the Kaduna International Airport two months after the facility was attacked by bandits.
Recall that bandits on March 26 launched an attempted invasion of the facility, killing a private security guard attached to the Nigerian Airspace management Agency near the outer perimeter fence.
Though they were repelled by security forces attached to the airport, commercial airlines plying the route suspended their flights, seeking improved security.
