The suit brought by the Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON) against the Federal Government over the establishment of a national carrier will be moved to Abuja from Lagos, Saturday Sun has learned.

The first, third and fourth defendants (Nigeria Air, Minister of Aviation and the Attorney General of the Federation) filed a motion asking that the court move its proceedings from the Federal High Court, Lagos, to the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja.

In a Motion of Notice jointly signed on January 13, 2023, by Liman Sulieman Shehu (esq), Maimuna Shiru, Orlowo Oluwaseun, the court accepted that the proceeding be moved to Abuja but didn’t specify a date.
