The management of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has notified air travellers and the public that the Nigerian Air Force would be conducting a mock exercise on counter- terrorism simulation at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

In a statement signed by the the General Manager, Public Affairs, FAAN, Saleh explained that the exercise might consist of aerial and land manoeuvres, which might create some dramatic spectacles and affect vehicular and human movements.
