Am I the only one who thinks the airport at the trade zone is just another waste of money? I'm still trying to figure out what it is with Nigerian leaders and airports.
MMA doesn't handle half the traffic of Heathrow yet the government is planning to build another airport in Lagos?
Someone please explain to me the economic sense.

Don't mind the little boy. He thought ports in Nigeria are only meant for importation of goods. Some of them don't think before they express themselves.

"Fashola" should be a subject to be study in Nigerian universities !

Mr McJay:

Phool, can't you see that it is LASG first, then FG, then NPA, then Private investors? I guess, you're one of those 'special' but not gifted people, so you'll need a picture to help your brain process the details properly. Check the pics of the commissioning of Eko Atlantic City, you'll see GEJ put in his place.

Unfortunately, he won't be commisioning this one cos in 4 years time, GEJ will be taking hypertension drugs in Kirikiri.

Care to explain how GEJ was "put in his place" during that launch?

Tribalism again? Na wa o. What is it worth anyway. And we are surpose to be grown adults here making suggestions for the good of the country. Well then, dont expext any better from the leaders.(walks away..smh)

10k God for dat, @least more hope for d jobless graduates nd d ones dat re yet to graduate too. BUT no tribalism is allowed! cos we re 1 NIGERIA.

Am nt suprised soon the Hausas will also start ranting..WE BUILD ABUJA WITH OUR OWN SWEAT

This seaport is gonna be big for the Lagos and Nigerian economy. I like it.

The present MMA is stretched, and has little room for expansion. The Lekki airport would primarily serve an estimated population of 2 million Lekki residents, and other Lagosians in general. Also, the Lagos area may witness a tourists' invasion within d next decade, which will make the airport useful.
Remember that Dubai has a population of 3 million, yet the Dubai airport handles over 50 million passengers annually.

Eko Ile:

And what giant strides are the folks you mentioned making?

When was the last time they commissioned anything?


What major and visionary projects do they have going on?


Put your money where your mouth is....

AKWA IBOM
Ibom International Airport: Check. 2nd Phase ongoing.
Ibaka Seaport: Planning phase check.

So basically, you're about to undertake projects we've already executed. Welcome to the club though

Eko Ile:

Are you a comedian...

Are you a learner...

I'm just worried that airport is the last of our problems. We should improve the efficiency of the current ones before spend scarce funds on another one.

How much are you racking-in from your ports?

Eko Ile:

You mean. Onisha canoe port? Isn't that a yam tuber and. Okporoko warehouse with 2 forklifts. ?


lamp...

LMAO EKo ile i give you this one, you funny....I thought you had just one cap which is the ACN attach dog Ikorodu zone...Apparently you wear another cap as a comedian. I no go lie, i go pay watch you perform.

The LASG won't be the sole financiers of the airport project, the private investors will foot most of the bill. As for the other airports, the FG through FAAN, are embarking on an aggressive remodeling program on them.

The Airport is needed, remember the Eko Atlantic City! The city needs an high class airport too

By d way am a Nigerian,Born in d West,schooled in d North n served in d east.d problem I av with people like u is dat u are too scared to Travel.

Actually they don't.

Aside from the funds to build the new airport, we don't need 2 airports in the same state competing against each other.
As for the FAAN remodeling, most of those airports would be shut down because they are not contributing to the economy.
