Before the International status of this Airport, Ibos complained of how Yorubas deliberately sabotaged them, and used policies to prevent them from running an international airport in SE. They claimed that they make up the bulk of travellers. Some even claimed that they are over 90% of international travelers using the airports in the country. They complained and whined bitterly of how that have to transit via Lagos or Abuja, Port-Harcourt to get to their place.

I am just wondering, now that you guys have an airport, and Yorubas did not cause any problem there, what is the international traffic like over there? Are Ibos now using the airport, thereby forcing airliners to move there due to increasing demand? Has the traffic in Lagos and Abuja declined since 90% of travellers should be going through their home airport?

Please anyone with stats is appreciated.

Thanks,
