It will leave for Beijing on Monday for 15 hours of non-stop flight to China with its B777-ER, registration number 5N-BE,” Olajide said.
The COO, on behalf of the airline, gave kudos to the Federal Government for its efforts to rid the country of the coronavirus disease, noting that the Nigerian government was way ahead of some countries in the fight against the virus.
Her words: “The management of Air Peace commends the Federal Government for being proactive in the preparation for emergencies, preventing the spread of the virus and also providing the kits and other medical equipment for the treatment of those infected by the pandemic.
“This shows that the government is ready to fight this disease and it is even more prepared than the governments of some of the advanced nations in the measures and strategies adopted to eradicate the virus.”
