geeez: The Minister of Aviation looks very cosmetic and that's exactly her approach to aviation business in Nigeria. Remodeling airports which I think should be concessioned and not addressing the real issues like safety and security of passengers. Even the runways are in pitiable states. She prefers some cosmetic surgery as treatment for a skin disease rather than address the underlying cause. It's a shame

musiwa12: this is a state own airport, i think, is it not. anymore..

And he leave ibadan which is 10 times bigger than owerri.. does that not tell you goodluck is a tribalist. like the other nigerian.. they are all the same..

liberty300: if this same thing was to happen in lagos, you'd be like "eko oni bajeooo"..but it is happening somewhere else so its not enough!! Clap for yourself

abeg help me tell the murrafucker! haters on the loose!

thelastPope:

Why do you ACN supporters always seek to ridicule other tribes, anything from other states, or anything from the FG? Is that your idea of opposition politics? You lot are very divisive and petty. It is really sad!

Eko Ile: Looks more like okporoko storage warehouse still under construction..



smh...

PROUD-IGBO:
Why are the ceilings so low?....there's no feeling of space; and any escalators/travelators/lifts installed?

Adura_ngba:

mtcheww. is it not just one floor?

dayokanu:

You must be a tool, When did Abagworo become ACN and which tribe is Abagworo trying to ridicule

Maybe you should explain that to us

Abagworo:

LMFAO. Thanks for talking on my behalf. I was only saying the truth and I'm from Imo State for that matter. I'm scared of landing on any Nigerian Airport outside Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt. If the runways at the Imo Airport are expanded and upgraded, it could raise my confidence and not just beautification.

dayokanu:

So anyone who says anything against the govt must be from ACN and from a particular tribe

Thats the caliber of People who support Retardeen Jonathan as clueless as the president

asha 80: almost all the remodelled aiport have the same design.the benin own looks like this.

Eko Ile: So, these are cookie cutter airports with uniform designs..?


lmao..

Arobam: It's so unfortunate that some Nigerians are so parochial and hateful. How can any sane mind have problem with the remodelling of airports?
This is development at work. The remodelling is not only for the building alone. It involves the runways and the control tower.
And who told you that Sam Mbakwe airports are not safe? Have you heard of any mishap or incident in Owerri airport owing to poor facilities.
Why must we be this critical of this government?
If you see somebody who is working, appreciate it. These airports were not like this before.
But the present minister is really upgrading them and giving them a facelift. She deserves our kudos

Omo_Tier1:
Because low minds like you have barely set your foot outside of Nigeria to see what an Airport really looks like! Remodelling an airport goes beyond painting walls and ceilings. It is total re-planning of the now and future capacity of the airport and that begins with the runway utilization planning, control tower 24/7 operations, aircraft handling facilities and passenger's comfort.

Come to some of the airports here in Europe, used by most of the low cost carriers, now much can be said about the passenger's comfort zone but they make sure the main thing that makes an airport function 24/7 is available!

manny4life: I just love how Nigerians argue, people can immediately look at an uncompleted (still in production) bldg and immediately predict that safety and security is lagging... Madam minister, abg continue your work, leave all the haterz with their hatorade, let them drink and suffer. Before we run, we must learn to crawl, then walk... Let them bring the airport online, when it become 100% viable, then we can talk of expansion plans. JFK, LHR, ATL, etc did not have plans, it was growth that prompted it.

asha 80:

are you sure about that?

manny4life:

100% certain. ATL did not have in its plan for the newest runway, when traffic was congested so hard, they bought out the land close by and added another runway that cost more than $1billion. Even the terminals were built out by Delta since Delta uses ATL as it's main hub.

CFCfan:

OMG!! A runway cost N160bn?! Maybe it was built in a difficult terrain.

Please don't let any Nigerian govt official see your post o; before they get other ideas
