 Mexico City airport undergoes massive World Cup deadline renovation amid ongoing construction chaos  With less than a month until the 2026 FIFA World Cup, passengers arriving at Mexico City’s Benito Juárez International Airport are being met with active construction zones, where drilling equipment, exposed pipes, and unfinished flooring dominate parts of the terminals. Despite the disruption, the airport is also filled with World Cup branding, including posters and large decorative soccer balls and trophies meant to keep the focus on the upcoming tournament. Airport officials say more than 3,000 workers are on site operating up to 20 hours a day as part of an accelerated effort to finish major upgrades. The renovation, launched in May 2025 and valued at roughly $500 million, is one of the largest modernization projects in the airport’s history and is fully funded by the facility itself, which has been overseen by the Mexican Navy since 2023.

ICPC EXPLAINS WHY ADC LEADERS WERE DENIED ACCESS TO EL-RUFAI. (PHOTO).


 ICPC Explains Why ADC Leaders Were Denied Access To El-Rufai


The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has clarified why leaders of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) were prevented from visiting former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, saying the action was based on an existing court order.


Speaking to journalists on Saturday, ICPC spokesperson John Odey said the commission received a letter from the ADC requesting permission for some party leaders, including Rauf Aregbesola and Bolaji Abdullahi, to visit El-Rufai.


According to Odey, the commission replied to the party on May 21, informing them that the visit could not be approved because the court order only permits access to El-Rufai’s immediate family members, legal representatives, and medical doctors.


He stated that the ADC was officially notified before its members arrived at the commission’s office, adding that evidence showed the party acknowledged receipt of the letter.


Odey also rejected claims that ADC leaders were harassed or intimidated by security operatives during the visit. 


He explained that the armed police officers seen at the commission’s headquarters were part of the regular security presence usually stationed at the facility.


The ICPC maintained that it would continue to comply strictly with the court’s directive and could not allow access to individuals outside the approved categories.


Earlier, the ADC accused the anti-corruption agency of blocking its leaders from seeing El-Rufai and alleged that heavily armed police officers were deployed to intimidate opposition figures.


El-Rufai is currently facing trial on nine amended charges linked to alleged violations of anti-corruption, fraud, and procurement laws. 


The former governor has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
