The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Headquarters Logistics Command has announced the temporary closure of sections of the Murtala Muhammed Airport Road, Lagos, on Saturday, October 18, 2025, to allow for its routine 10-kilometre Walk/Jog Exercise.

According to a statement issued by the Command Public Relations Officer, Squadron Leader Abigail Ologun, the exercise is scheduled to begin at 6:00 a.m. and conclude by 8:00 a.m.

It forms part of ongoing efforts by the NAF to enhance physical fitness, health, and operational readiness among its personnel.

During the two-hour exercise, motorists and residents are advised to make use of alternative routes, as movement will be restricted between Murtala Muhammed Airport 2 (MMA2) and the Murtala Muhammed International Airport.

“The Command has made adequate arrangements to ensure the exercise is smooth, safe, and hitch-free. NAF and other security personnel will be on ground to guide traffic and ensure public safety,” the statement read in part.

While expressing regret for any inconvenience the temporary closure may cause, the Air Force appealed for the understanding and cooperation of the public, assuring that normal traffic flow will be restored immediately after the exercise.
