MKO Abiola International Airport Will Be Ready Next Year- Osun Government by emamos: 10:09am On Oct 09, 2015
Contractor handling MKO Abiola International Airport in Osun State, Aeronautical Engineering and Technical Services Limited, has assured that the project would be ready for operation next May.
Managing Director of the Nigeria Air Force-owned company, Air Commodore Hyacinth Eze, stated this when he led a team of engineers handling the project to Governor Rauf Aregbesola in Osogbo.
The airport at Ido-Osun in Egbedore Local Government Area, when completed, would be a cargo and aircraft maintenance hub.
At completion, the airport, it was said, would be the first to have a hanger for maintenance of different types of aircraft and helicopters in the West African sub-region. He explained that the delay in completing the project was caused by little hitch that has been overcome.
Eze assured that work will be fast on the project site so as to meet the tentative target of eight months being proposed for full commencement of operation at the airport.
He said: “Our company has two on-going projects in the state, one, which is the most important of the projects is the airport named MKO Abiola International Airport.
“It is a project that we started and we have little hitch along the line but today, I am happy to inform you that this project is being revived.
“We have gone up to seventy per cent of the work and in another eight months we are hoping that this project will be completed and handed over to the state of Osun.”http://nationalmirroronline.net/new/mko-abiola-intl-airport-ready-next-year-osun-govt/

I've never hidden my love for PMB and my support is undivided,

Aregbesola has done many things that aren't exactly applaud-able and I have always defended


But this news is a big fat lie

70% of the work has not been done

There's no way that airport will be ready by may
2016

I know because I was around that city during sallah and no work has been done since February during campaign


I also want to point out that this statement, this promise is credited to Air Commodore Hyacinth Eze not Aregbesola, so in the future wailers don't come and twist the story

And for ibos , your kinsman is chopping from Osun states money and Yorubas are not complaining, this goes to show that Yorubas hate no tribe and are willing to work with anyone who shares the same dream, goal or passion

This is white elephant project and north east wind that blow no man good. The airport in Ibadan is under utilized, why wasting public fund and make workers to suffer untold hardship for non payment of salaries. Mr Governor; pls pay salary and abandon this project. Don't use bail out fund to complete this project, i strongly advice you sir.

Osun workers are not smiling.

OYO,and Osun should have a shared regional airport. Ekiti and Ondoshould also have a shared regional airport. While Abeokuta should have a cargo airport with Lagos having the international airport serving Lagos and Abeokuta

Abeg, tell them!! This rush by every state governor to build an airport is really appalling. angry

Good advice. Let us hope that the governors of these states use their common sense to apply this sound piece of advice, when taking decisions that concern the airports. Akure airport can be used by both Ekiti and Ondo States as their regional airport, while the existing Ibadan airport can be utilised by both Oyo and Osun citizens for their travel needs.

Non viable waste of space.
Apart from Lagos building airports in the SW is a waste of funds.

International airports needs a lot of money to maintain.. every state should stop trying to walk before crawling.
