Nigerians likes to take issues for granted.That's why things ain't moving forward

Please you guys should stop spreading lies all n the name of getting hits and likes online. Do you even stop to ponder the damage some of these your fake news causes to your motherland?

These pictures are not pictures of stranded passengers but those are pictures of a typical day at Abuja airport. The second picture you posted is just the normal cabmen hustling for passengers at the departure exit.

I flew out of Abuja airport yesterday night and there ws a repeated announcement that the airport would still be open until midnight of today i.e a 24 hours extension. So why all these lies?
