A Saudi Arabian cargo plane has caused the temporary suspension of flights at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja.
The Saudi plane, a Boeing 747 cargo aircraft overran the runway and ran into a maintenance area of the airport and has to be fixed before it can be evacuated from the runway.
As a result, thousands of passengers, including movie star Kate Henshaw are stranded at different airports in the country, especially those who are Abuja-bound in Lagos, Port Harcourt, Uyo, Kaduna and Kano among others.
Officials are said to be battling to fix the grounded cargo plane and clear the runway.
