PRESS STATEMENT DISRUPTION-CANCELLATION OF OUR ABUJA TO MAIDUGURI FLIGHT OF 26 SEPTEMBER 2026. Air Peace wishes to provide an update regarding the flight disruptions experienced at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, following reports and footage circulating across the media and social media showing some of our esteemed passengers expressing their concerns over the disruption of the Abuja-Maiduguri service. The initial delays to our Abuja operations were occasioned by the unavailability of Jet A1 aviation fuel, which affected Air Peace and other airlines operating from the Abuja airport. Upon the availability of fuel, our affected flights commenced operations accordingly. However, our Abuja–Maiduguri service could not subsequently operate as planned because the tower in Maiduguri who had given extension for our flight to come in, later came back as at the time of our calling for Boarding, to state that the airport had become VFR and would no longer fly beyond sunset. Throughout the disruption, passengers were duly informed of the delays and provided with refreshments. Following the cancellation, affected Maiduguri passengers were also provided with hotel accommodation, with arrangements made to operate the flight the following day. We sincerely regret the inconvenience caused to our esteemed passengers and appreciate their patience and understanding. At Air Peace, the safety and wellbeing of our passengers remain paramount, and we will continue to prioritise these considerations in all our operations. SIGNED Management Air Peace Limited
