A Nigerian man has taken to social media to disclose the emptiness of Lagos airport due to the high cost of flight tickets.
A picture captured in the early hours of the morning disclosed the empty area in the Lagos airport with less than 10 people expecting their flight.
Sharing on the microblogging platform, the man @Oladapomikky1 felt disappointed after discovering several empty seats in the waiting area upon his arrival at the Muritala Muhammed Airport in Lagos State.
He mentioned that the airport appeared empty as a result of the high cost of flight tickets; the return flight from Lagos to Abuja cost a whooping sum of 143,000 Naira.
He tweeted,
“Empty airport this morning. Return ticket Lagos to Abuja is 143k”
Reactions have trailed online as tweeps confirmed the present economy has triggered drastic changes in the transportation system.
Many claimed that the majority opted for land transportation to avoid the outrageous cost of flight.
