Osun Names Airport After Late Moshood Abiola

An airport under construction in Ido-Osun, Osun State, has been named after the acclaimed winner of June 12, 1993 presidential election, Chief MKO Abiola, by the Osun State Government.

Commissioner for Regional Integration and Special Duties, Mr Ajibola Basiru, stated this on Thursday during a ministerial news conference held at the Governor’s Office, Abere.

Basiru disclosed that the aircraft maintenance facility of the airport would be ready by next year while international flights would also commence next year.

The airport, which was formerly an aerodrome, had been abandoned for several decades by subsequent administration in Osun before the Rauf Aregbesola administration decided to
reconstruct it.

Basiru said the fencing of the airport had been completed while all gates and security facilities of the airport had been completed.

Commenting on Osun Citizens Mediation Centre – a government agency engaged in conflict resolution, Basiru said the centre had received 84 complaints, adding that none of the complaints had to do with religious disagreement.

Good News coming from my Dear State...Qudos to Ogbeni for the Airport too.

Osun adara Oº°˚˚°ºo Oº°˚˚°ºo Oº°˚˚°ºo...........

front page, may his legacies live on

What about the University in Lagos...MAULAG?

Thought that they would have completed the project first before naming it.
I hope it will not end up being an abandon project as usual?
Seems they want to use this to gain some cheap political points
My opinion though...

Thank GOD they can now revert d name maulag back 2 unilag

wow i'm glad to hear dys 4rm my dear state..[color=#006600][/color][i][/i]

It is always about this man.....

Why not complete it first before naming it after someone. And what does Osun even need an airport for. What a waste.

hairport??in osun state?wonderful!

The Man Tried - He Deserves It.

whatever...............

MKO Abiola stadium, MKO Abiola road, MKO Abiola Polytechnic, MKO Abiola University and now MKO Abiola airport.

Seriously wondering what he contributed to development of this nation to warrant this recognition. Is he Nelson Mandela?

Is dr no icon in Osun State ?

Airport in Osun state I see it as a misplaced priority. There are airports in Lagos and Ibadan. Osogbo is like an hr drive from Ibadan. I don't see the need for an airport.

slowpoke 10 abi na wetin U̶̲̥̅̊ call ur name self. U̶̲̥̅̊ better go ur village or to ur great great grand mother to tell U̶̲̥̅̊ how many life MKO touched. I don't think you are even well read cos U̶̲̥̅̊ would av known dat all d above mentioned honours to MKO were from states & not federal(UNILAG still in contention). Go to ur section on NL(ben 10) & meet ur peers.

Elections are coming next year, 2014 so you should understand the effizy things.
That is how the band of fraudsters in the Association of Conmen in Nigeria, ACN operates.
They are always using the FUTURE tense to report their projects - will be completed!

Meanwhile Aregberascal is yet to fully implement the N18,000 minimum wage in Osun and has a running battle with the state NLC.
Not much has been done on BASIC services of pipeborne water all over the state, rehabilitation of primary & secondary schools, primary health centres etc.

Chief,perhaps you dont know.Airport is just one of the necessary facilities to facilitate trade and investment in the country.That is part of discerning investors consider before making their investment decision.

And it will be an international airport too, according to the news.
Meanwhile ACN's Fayemi also set up a panel to build an airport in Ekiti state.
Misplaced priority that their gullible followers will start hailing while their clueless masters cart away their money quietly.

My opinion though...

Governor Rauf Aregbesola makes a lot of noise.

Osun state . . .International flight
International flight . . .Osun state

RIIIIGGHHT!!!

So Osun should live on those states for life?...or you think everyone want to remain stagnant in life as u decide to be?

Even the airport in Ibadan is rarely used cos Lagos is a stone throw away.

You make noise, can you afford the cost for a flight ticket for a short distance like Lagos-Ibadan?

What is this one saying, so you think its wrong for every state to have its own Airport. Nawa for this kind mentality oo.

gud move
