Good afternoon. I have some good news. The new Abuja International Airport terminal is...mind blowing! As we alighted from the aircraft into the glass tunnel, you know that smell that usually hits you when you land in Nigeria? It wasn’t there. The AC in the tunnel worked. Thread.

It’s real, guys. This is Naija. I had arrived on Ethiopian Airlines with my work colleague, Duke, who is visiting Nigeria for the first time ever. Duke said “Wow! Now this is an airport!” We had come in from the dreadful Addis Ababa Bole Airport.

I just said “Yeah.”I didn’t feel the need to tell Duke it was new...until he asked. Boarding gates were spacious and nicely laid out. Comfortable waiting areas. Very clear signage everywhere. Yep! I checked: The clock displayed the right time. I was proud.

Yep! The automatic thermo-imaging machines work. This young man triggered a red image and was immediately pulled to one side.Toilets were clean and had toilet rolls in them. No pit latrines here unlike Idu Train Terminal. The wash basins were clean. Trust me nau, I tried the automatic soap dispenser. It worked.Immigration was a joyful experience.

I said “Good afternoon” to the pretty immigration officer and she said “Good afternoon, Sir. Welcome back home.” She stamped me in and said “Next!” That was it. The queue for Nigerians moved much faster than that of foreigners. As it should!You take your own trolley. No porters here. I counted 5 conveyor belts. I think they could have spread out each belt a bit more, but it was okay. Our luggage was out exactly 20 minutes after we touched down! That’s disembarking, clearing immigration, trolley & then luggage.

Wow!Then we were stopped by Customs! One stopped me and one stopped my friend Duke and asked what was in our bags. I said “I have brought him to Nigeria for the very first time.” They asked me “Oh, is he with you? I said “Yes.” They said “Ok you can go.”I was a bit miffed that they didn’t say “Welcome to Nigeria” to Duke.

Anyway, this sign made me feel better. That I could see a sign to the Metro from a Nigerian airport? Great! Yes, we should worry about maintenance. For me, I’ll just enjoy it today and be proud! Thanks!! End.

Welcome back bros. Nigeria will work for all of us. We hope for very best.

So we should be dancing and make merry??

Have you been to Kotoka International Airport in Ghana??

Please let's stop celebrating mediocrity.

Cool. Neat and organized.

I have nothing to say other than;

May God bless pmb/pyo
May God bless Rotimi Ameachi 
May God bless patriotic Nigerians.

Pyo/elrufai, when you take over in 2023, pls ensure this good work continues.

I still wonder why a human being with human brain will thumb print for pdp, God forbid.

Is there a rail link from airport to town?

Do Nigeria have Metro line(s) in Abuja?

cola:
A government made this a reality. And only in three years, not 16, not 12, not 8, not even 4 years!

Similar positive appraisal has been written of the Port Harcourt international.

Now Enugu and Kano should follow suit.

Kudos.

God bless you.

I tried to know you and why a person would jump from an Airport opening news to calling people Ipob Pigs. Thus, I entered your profile and past posts to find the kind of man you are.
Shocked at the level of hate. I kept scrolling and all I found was grave insults and vulgarity beyond all reasoning. I weak!
Why If i may ask? Why such level of annoyance. Why toll a part that reduces you to a riffraff. The likes are running for you because of bandwagon effect but for every click, they help in ripping your soul. I pray you find peace as you search your soul.

Printerscanner:
Yet IPOB pigs and idiots are angry that Buhari is back, better than ever. What PDP destroyed over the years, Buhari is repairing and rebuilding them.

you and your Oyibo frnd go about snapping toilet at the airport?

Goodluck project, thank you sir

BigBashiru:

yes

God will.never elrufai to rule this nation. He can continue as Governor in kano state.

That's a good development, but we all know maintaiance is our problem in Nigeria. In Lagos for example, there are several conveyor belts, but only one or two are working, one has to wait several hours for one's baggages.
Then we need more international airports,we don't all have to go to Abuja or Lagos or Enugun to fly.

This is cool. Not bad.

What exactly is special about that kotoka airport though?

Not impressed a bit.

Omero:
Not impressed a bit.

Yes, we know what impresses you and your ilk.

When will you post a report of boko haram killing soldiers? Is that not what impresses you?

Nigeria is the giant of Africa, so this should not be seen as an achievement.

It's easy to at least build facilities when you have oil money. The problem still remains the lack of a maintenance culture.

Is it your oil? Is it your money?

So what stopped pdp from doing this "easy" thing despite the huge oil money at its disposal?

This is what am expecting

We can only get better..

Truly Bubu is working

PMB is working

For how long. Will Buhari's FAAN maintain it

Is that an achievement or what?

Everything go soon spoil with no maintenance.
