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

Published

on


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.

Edo tribunal dismisses petition against Gov Okpebholo, APC

Published

Okpebholo

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.

• targets attracting $30bn investments by 2027, $60bn by 2030.
President Bola Tinubu in a bold move to reshape Nigeria’s oil and gas sector as well as restore investor confidence in a more commercially viable entity,
has dissolved the board of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited, removing its chairman, Chief Pius Akinyelure, and Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO), Mallam Mele Kolo Kyari.
The sweeping changes, effective April 2, 2025, were announced in a statement signed by Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga,
President Tinubu cited the need for enhanced operational efficiency, restored investor confidence, and a more commercially viable NNPC as the driving forces behind the decision.
Invoking his powers under Section 59(2) of the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) 2021, he reconstituted the board with new leadership aimed at repositioning NNPC Limited for greater productivity and alignment with global best practices.
He appointed Ahmadu Kida as the new non-executive chairman of NNPC Limited. Kida, an oil industry veteran with extensive experience at Elf Petroleum and Total Exploration and Production, previously served as Deputy Managing Director of Deep Water Services at Total Nigeria. He also held a position as an Independent Non-Executive Director at Pan Ocean-Newcross Group. Beyond his oil industry career, Kida is known for his tenure as president of the Nigerian Basketball Federation.
Replacing Kyari as GCEO is Bashir Ojulari, a seasoned executive in Nigeria’s oil and gas sector. Ojulari’s career spans roles at Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria and Renaissance Africa Energy Company. Notably, he led a consortium of indigenous energy firms in acquiring Shell’s equity holdings in Nigeria for $2.4 billion. His expertise includes petroleum engineering and strategic planning across Europe, the Middle East, and Nigeria.
The newly constituted 11-member board includes Adedapo Segun as Chief Financial Officer alongside six non-executive directors representing Nigeria’s geopolitical zones: Bello Rabiu (North West), Yusuf Usman (North East), Babs Omotowa (North Central), Austin Avuru (South-South), David Ige (South West), and Henry Obih (South East). Mrs. Lydia Shehu Jafiya from the Federal Ministry of Finance and Aminu Said Ahmed from the Ministry of Petroleum Resources will also serve on the board.
President Tinubu also  set ambitious targets for the oil sector under his administration’s reforms.
By 2027, it aims to increase oil production to two million barrels per day and gas production to eight billion cubic feet daily. By 2030, these f
igures are expected to rise to three million barrels and ten billion cubic feet daily, respectively.
Additionally, NNPC’s crude oil refining capacity is projected to reach 200,000 barrels per day by 2027 and 500,000 barrels daily by 2030. President Tinubu envisioned attracting $30 billion in investments by 2027 and $60 billion by 2030.
To achieve these goals, Tinubu directed the new board to conduct a strategic portfolio review of NNPC-operated and joint venture assets to align operations with value maximization objectives. The restructuring also seeks to boost local content development and accelerate gas commercialization to diversify Nigeria’s energy resources.
President Tinubu expressed gratitude to outgoing board members for their service, particularly their efforts in rehabilitating refineries such as Port Harcourt and Warri. He wished them success in their future endeavors as his administration moves forward with its vision for a transformed oil and gas sector.
