Air Peace has announced that it will resume flight operations on Friday, April 25, 2025, following the suspension of the strike by the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) workers.
The airline’s Head of Corporate Communications, Dr Ejike Ndiulo, made this known in a statement on Thursday night.
Ndiulo stated: “Air Peace is grateful to its customers and the general public for patience, understanding and support throughout the period of the strike.
“Your resilience and trust in our brand mean the world to us.
“We commend the active and decisive intervention of the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Mr Festus Keyamo (SAN), whose leadership and commitment were pivotal in resolving the impasse and restoring normalcy within the aviation industry.”
He noted the minister’s swift engagement with aviation stakeholders, his transparent approach, and his dedication to the stability and progress of the aviation sector.
According to him, Keyamo’s efforts not only facilitated the timely resolution of the industrial dispute but also underscored his broader vision for a safer, more efficient, and investor-friendly Nigerian aviation industry.

Ndiulo reaffirmed Air Peace’s commitment to providing safe, reliable, and world-class services to the airline’s customers.
NiMet workers, on Thursday, shelved the strike which commenced on Wednesday, following Keyamo’s intervention.
The workers downed tools in protest of alleged poor working conditions, including non-implementation of the 2019 Consequential Adjustment to the National Minimum Wage (affecting at least 30 staff).
They are also demanding a 25/35 per cent salary increase, 40 per cent hardship/peculiar allowance, and annual staff training.
Keyamo had promised to find lasting solutions to the workers’ demands.
