Nigeria is adding Emirates Airline to the list of carriers not allowed to fly into the country, Aviation Minister Hadi Sirika said.
Nigerian officials held talks with European Union officials over the ban on flights by Lufthansa, Air France and KLM, the minister said on Twitter. “The meeting progressed well,” he said.
Nigeria has banned airlines as it resumed international flights on Sept. 5 following a prolonged lockdown to curb spread of the coronavirus, saying it was in retaliation for similar restrictions.
Emirates can’t fly to Nigeria with effect from Sept. 21, said Sirika.
