‎Former Governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi has commended Air Peace as the airline opened its executive lounge at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport Terminal 2.

The event which took place at the weekend had the airline’s management team in attendance including first and business class passengers on the airline’s  London service among whom was Obi.

The former governor commended the airline for its drive toward innovation, highlighting the importance of indigenous carriers investing in infrastructure that enhances Nigeria’s aviation reputation on the global stage.

The lounge has a seating capacity of 39 guests and features six designed recliner chairs that guarantee optimal rest and relaxation.

The facility also includes a fully functional workspace equipped with computer monitors and printing facilities.

Two private areas fitted with tablets and headphones provide guests with a quiet setting for virtual meetings or personal entertainment.

An expansive entertainment section, complete with a large television, complements a fully stocked bar offering pastries, soft drinks, and a curated selection of beverages.

Passengers also benefit from an interactive display monitor showcasing real-time flight schedules, company profiles, and product offerings, all within a facility secured by a 24/7 360-degree surveillance system to ensure safety and peace of mind.

Speaking after the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the Airline’s Chief Commercial Officer, Mr. Nowel Ngala, described the lounge as a strategic investment in customer experience and brand positioning.

He noted that the facility underscores Air Peace’s resolve to provide world-class services comparable to global standards, while reinforcing its leadership across West and Central Africa.

According to him, the Executive Lounge is not merely an addition to infrastructure but a statement of appreciation to the airline’s loyal premium passengers who continue to trust the brand on domestic, regional, and long-haul routes.
