  • Bolt has resumed operations at Nigerian airports after a directive from the Aviation Minister.
  • The minister instructed the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria to urgently resolve issues concerning airport transport fares and e-hailing services.
  • The intervention aimed to address concerns and ensure the smooth operation of services for travelers.

Bolt has resumed services at Nigerian airports, marking a swift resolution following intervention by the Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo.

The ride-hailing company had previously suspended operations due to disputes over fare structures and the availability of e-hailing services at airport terminals. The suspension caused significant inconvenience for travelers seeking transport to and from the airports.

Minister Keyamo directed the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) to immediately address the concerns raised by Bolt and other e-hailing services. This directive aimed to de-escalate the situation and restore essential transportation links for airport users.

The quick response from the ministry highlights the government's focus on ensuring the smooth functioning of essential services and addressing the needs of both service providers and the public.
