The outage, which happened at a section of the airport, resulted in passengers being stranded at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport on Saturday.
It was gathered that the departure lounge of the International Airport was the most affected.
However in a statement on Saturday by its Acting General Manager, Corporate Affairs, Faithful A. Hope-Ivbaze (Mrs.), FAAN explained that the outage was caused by Friday’s rain, which came with winds and storms.
According to Ivbaze, the natural occurrence affected one of the feeders, resulting in the temporary disruption of power supply to the D wing of the airport.
She added: “However, our engineers quickly discovered the fault and liaised with the Ejigbo duty/area control office of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria to resolve the problem. Normalcy has since been restored in the affected area.
“FAAN is Committed to our core values of Safety, Security and Comfort.”
