“Like many airlines in Nigeria, Aero Contractors have been operating daily, and facing the challenges squarely.
“We categorically deny any plan to close operations as the airline is proactively taking necessary measures and strategy to continue operation and ensure a great travel experience to our highly esteemed customers,” the airline said in a statement.
The airline urged it’s clients, customers, the traveling public and stakeholders to disregard the story by the media platform.
