The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Headquarters Logistics Command has announced that sections of the Murtala Muhammed Airport Road in Lagos will be temporarily closed on Saturday, the 18th of October, 2025, for its routine 10-kilometre Walk/Jog Exercise.
According to a statement signed by the Command Public Relations Officer, Squadron Leader Abigail Ologun, the exercise will take place between 6:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. as part of NAF’s continuous efforts to promote physical fitness, health, and operational efficiency among its personnel.
Motorists and residents around the Murtala Muhammed Airport corridor have been advised to use alternative routes during the period, as movement will be briefly restricted between Murtala Muhammed Airport Terminal 2 (MMA2) and the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA).
