JEEZ!!!!!you are one tribal bigot who is blind to the truth.. just on Monday there was Bird strike at the same Airport with Airpeace...The Aircraft was carrying Deputy senate President, Anambra State Governor and Senator Victor Umeh.... Now tell me, how does this affect the North or SWyou need to grow pass tribal bigotry, else you’ll be walking to your doom....#KMT
So anytime there is bird strike the airport is short down / downgraded... if a problem have been identified why not solve it... if you stop international flights, people in local flights are less humans...
Safety is key... however the listed problems are not rocket science for any serious government to fix pronto...

In another post I read, the market and abbatoirsxare to be relocated, cos these are breeding places for birds.. if the relocation is done, I believe, there will be less bird strikes in that Airport.... it’s something that need serious and urgent attention....

I don't think there's any future plan for extension/expansion of the airport. I'll suggest if possible, they should relocate to a remote site.

Hardly a week goes by without a plane somewhere in the US making an emergency landing after hitting birds. As these incidents reach record levels, airports are coming up with increasingly imaginative ways of combating them.

1. Every airport in the US, and many more across the world, use pyrotechnics daily to drive the birds away.

2. A population of Canada geese used to live between the two runways at Salt Lake City. Not any more, says Gib Rokich, who oversees the airport's wildlife programme, due to a system of egg addling. "The goose is scared from the nest and the eggs are addled or oiled pretty much in place by picking each egg up individually and shaking them or submerging them in vegetable oil. The goose continues to sit on them but they never have a successful hatch. If she lays 10 goslings, and five survive into adulthood, then they will want to come back to the same location to nest, so you can see how it can multiply. After four years, we broke the cycle, so we still get the occasional one but they're not established any more."


3. Eliminating vegetation removes a food source for birds and deters them from settling.



Bottom line is that bird strike occur everywhere and the solution is not to downgrade. When it is downgraded, will it stop bird strike or solve other problem listed?

NEXT LEVEL SHAAA

This Nigeria and Nigerians are totally pool hole There is noting to write home about this cone existence called Nigeria. Any thing that will lead to disintegration of this marriage is welcomed. Why not allow them to go since you don't need them.
