The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has issued a travel advisory, warning passengers and commuters to expect significant traffic congestion on routes leading to Murtala Muhammed Airport (MMA), Lagos.
The agency said the development was due to an ongoing protest by the Farmcraft Centre for the Blind.
