Azman Airline suspends flight operations, sends officials on leave

Azman Airline has placed all its employees on required unpaid leave, following the suspension of its commercial operations.

The vacation was said to have followed the airline’s Hajj activity which ended and the unavailability of its Boeing 737 aircraft which left for repair.

However, in a circular dated August 3, 2033, and signed by the Human Resources Manager, Magaji Mohammed Misau, only eight senior staff are exempted from the compulsory leave.

The circular read: “As you are aware that our domestic operations have been put on-hold for a while, due to the conveyance of our Aircraft for C-Checks and the MROS’ has given a longer time of completion.
