Know the Airlines, departure, and arrival terminals in Lagos Domestic Airports

Lagos is a metropolitan city and one of the busiest cities in Nigeria for air travelers that fly within and outside the country.
Domestic airlines in Lagos operate from two major terminals i.e., Murtala Mohammed 1, MM1 or General Aviation Terminal, or GAT, and Murtala Mohammed 2 also known as MM2.
Oftentimes, passengers find it difficult to identify which airline operates from which terminal. It is expedient to educate the general public on the terminal in which these airlines operate especially their departure and arrival terminals. This will save passengers the embarrassment of going to the wrong terminal.
GAT/MM1 and MM2 are about a 10-minute walking distance from one another. This 10-minute distance can mar a passenger’s journey if one finds himself in the wrong terminal.
It will interest you to know that most airlines in Nigeria do not specify in their ticket coupon the operating terminals for their various routes.
It is also very important for the public to know that the emphasis is on local airlines operating in Lagos.
General Aviation Terminal (GAT) has two wings i.e. A: Alpha Hall, and Z: Zulu Hall. Alpha Hall is jointly used by Arik Airline, Air Peace Airline, Overland Airways, and Green Africa Airways while Zulu Hall is dominated by Air Peace Airline.
Arik Airline and Air Peace which are the most popular domestic airlines operate from GAT and MM2. Other domestic airlines in Nigeria operate from either of these two major terminals in Lagos.
The table below shows the list of local airlines and their arrival and departure terminals in Lagos.

I hope this short write-up will serve as a guide and also proffer a solution to the lingering hurdles that passengers traveling from the local wings of Lagos terminals often face. This article is subject to periodic review based on the airlines’ operational changes.
My recently published article on the importance of online check-in generated a lot of positive feedback from the public. The number of passengers who now have knowledge of online check-in has greatly increased.
Direction to the two terminals: To link GAT coming from Ikeja immediately after the AP filling station, go straight after the traffic light by the skyline hotel, and do not make any turning. To link MM2 from Ikeja, after the AP filling station, make a turn towards the Airforce base, drive down a bit, and immediately after Arik headquarters you will see MM2 by the next roundabout.

“This period of reflection will inform plans to deepen ongoing reforms and accelerate national development priorities in the coming year.
“While away, President Tinubu will remain fully engaged with his team and continue to oversee governance activities.

Edo tribunal dismisses petition against Gov Okpebholo, APC

The Edo governorship election tribunal has dismissed the petition by Action Alliance (AA) and Adekunle Rufai Omoaje against Governor Monday Okpebholo and his political platform, the All Progressives Congress (APC), as winners of the September 21, 2024, governorship election in the state.
The three-member tribunal, in a unanimous judgment yesterday in Abuja, threw out the petition for being frivolous and lacking in merit.
In the first judgment of the Tribunal yesterday, the Justice Wilfred Kpochi-led tribunal held that Adekunle Rufai Omoaje, who filed the joint petition, has no locus standi to institute the case.
Among others, the Tribunal held that Omoaje did not participate in the governorship election and as such, has no power to question the validity of the election.
The Tribunal also held that Omoaje’s grouse against the election was that he was not recognized as the National Chairman of the Action Alliance for the purpose of nominating a candidate for the poll, but it was held that his claims had no basis in the Electoral Act 2022.
Omoaje had in the petition asked the Tribunal to declare the declaration of Okpebholo and APC as winners of the election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as illegal, unlawful, unconditional and null and void on non-compliance with the Electoral Act.
He also alleged corruption and that Okpebholo and APC did not win the majority of lawful votes in the election.
Omoaje also alleged that AA was not allowed to nominate a lawful governorship candidate for the election, having not signed the nomination form as the National Chairman of the party.
INEC declared that Okpebholo of the APC won 291,667 votes to defeat his closest rival, Asue Ighodalo of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP, who polled 247,655 votes in the election.
