All the Igbos are asking for is equal opportunity then let's see who will be first among equals.

Exactly. Thats what EVERY part of Nigeria needs

What Igbos desires desperately to become a perpetual champions is level playing ground, if you look at my signature you will see "Egbe Bere, Ugo Bere" which suggests equal opportunity for all. This is a massive step towards healing a long lasting wound. Those crediting this achievement to Yar’Adua should also credit the curent ASUU /FG crisis to Yar’Adua because he signed the agreement without any plans to implement it.

Long live LONGERIA

Trust Ndigbo.

^^^Nice prayer and all, but this ain't gonna happen unless we're all pulling in one direction, enthrone merit over federal character, jettison 'pull him down' syndrome, and finally see Nigeria as a project we all have to contribute something to build instead of thinking what we can get out of it 'for me and my ethnicity/region'!

You have really spoken well . I am not an igbo man but I see this accomplishment Not as a victory for the igbo man but a victory for Good governance, its a day every Nigerian should celebrate because we now have a Government that promises and goes ahead to keep those promises .

Whichever way you look at it, this is a major plus for the Jonathan govt.

I honestly can't see him losing the next elections.

I guessed right all those blabbers who forecasted that the airport will not be viable should go for s psychiatric test, this is how some clowns tell us that the deep sea port wouldn't not be viable. How long would it take some folks realise that there was a real conspiracy to deny some sections of the country.
With this impressive opening enugu is set to become an aviation hub, more interesting fact is that the east can accommodate 3 more international airports,.
Like I predicted the Christmas period would be something else as thr air traffic in enugu would double that of abuja and possibly compare with lagos international air traffic

G.E.J till 2019 & hand over to Igbo man
