The southeast does not have enough land for all the states to have an airport. Enugu has one, Imo has one, Anambra is building one and Ebonyi is building another one. Meanwhile PH and Asaba both have one and they are close to these states. Doesn't make sense if u ask me.

You've never been robbed or kidnapped on the highway before. You won't know how important traveling by air or rail is

Misplaced priorities.. one airport is enough to serve all the 5 SE states not up to Oyo state in size. There are better things to do with money.
So says a typical Osun based Yoruba Muslim who hasn't been to the SE. I usually fly to Owerri, and from there to my home town is over 3 hrs by road. If I go through Enugu, that'll be more than 5hrs.

When Ebonyi state voted in this man, they didn't know they had signed Messi. He has won the political "ballon d'or" back to back since 2015. Citizens of states that their governor's achievement(s) is either to appear during children's day celebration, control traffic, sign MOU, share kerosene, share ludo, give yearly budgets botanical/scientific names, dethrone traditional rulers, eat roadside roasted corn, mould statue, stuff dollars, share cars, collect loans, sponsor pilgrimages etc should know that when they voted, they signed Yakubu Ayegbeni.

I'm also from Anambra and would confess that we actually have nothing, especially in awka. The airport sef I no know. But the perception people have about Ebonyi people has to change someday. Now their governor is championing it. We the sophisticated Anambra people will one day be envious of Abakaliki.
Seriously I'm from Anambra but I'm not proud to say so, I always feel inferior and less when I meet people from Enugu, Ebonyi, imo and Abia.. Because they all have airports or they're building, but my Anambra is a cursed worthless erosion ravaged shithole village which isn't even igbo.. Our Anambra is cursed beyond measure.. Anambra father's rape their daughters.
Anambra governor is a Drunkard cursed governor

If airport is not development then what do you understand by development who do you think are going to be employed to work at the airport at the end of the day? Stop discouraging people who have decided to set high standards for themselves despite all their limitations most developed cities and states in the world started like this.

Did you consider air traffic, cost to run and maintain an airport effectively? or you think it's same as bus park.

What is the total population of SE sef to start with that every state wants to have airport. What will happen to Enugu and Anambra airports?
Some things are not just worth the hype you know.

WAS WAITING FOR DIS TO BE SAID. MIND YOU, MOST OF THE AIRPORTS IN NIGERIA ARE CURRENTLY UNPROFITABLE AND DEPEND ON GOVERNMENT FUNDING. D EXCEPTION IS PROBABLY LAGOS AIRPORT. HE SHOULD HAVE WORKED WITH OTHER SE GOVERNORS TO CREATE WORLDCLASS TRANSPORTATION FROM ENUGU AIRPORT TO THEIR STATES. ROAD AND RAIL. EBONYI IS A CIVIL SERVANT STATE WITH CONSIDERABLY LESS INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITY IN FACT SO HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL TRAVEL VIA AIRPORT THERE? AN AIRPORT IS EXTREMELY COSTLY TO CONSTRUCT AND MAINTAIN.

GOVERNORS WASTING FUNDS ON CONFERENCE CENTERS AND AIRPORT IN STATES WITH POOR INFRASTRUCTURE AND UNEMPLOYMENT.

Another white elephant project to chop money. There is no reason air traffic to Ebonyi cannot go through Akanu Ibiam airport in Enugu which is just a stones throw away and is underused and unprofitable. If Enugu airport is unprofitable, wetin consign Abakiliki with airport?

The UK cities of Derby, Nottingham and Leicester are served by East Midlands airport and almost everyone in those counties can afford to fly regularly, unlike Ebony where I doubt 5% can afford to fly semi-regularly.

The money would be better spent ensuring ease of transport between Abakiliki and Enugu.

All this airport construction which state governments are suddenly gazing at which has the people celebrating as a major project in the state, hope it's contractors are from the state and of what benefit would the project be to an average Joe in the streets of Ebonyi? Hope when it comes to employing workers they won't come to ask for five years experience from individuals who doesn't know what an airport facility is made of for years now or it would be something of knowing somebody that knows somebody before you're even looked at, the income which it would yeild, what would it be used for, another elite project I suggest, Traders that complain daily of ferrying their goods within and outside the state, Shea e never reach make them construct road give them at least make man pikin for see food chop, make business dey visible, make customer for see way come patronize business, na money to come board plane na him e go come dey think of

Misplaced priorities!

This Abakaliki governor and misplaced priorities. Ebonyi people are not empowered enough to need airport. Enugu airport is nearby. It looks like the airport will be used by herdsmen to freight cows into the state while Ebonyi people hawk gala around the vicinity.

It will happen to your dismay and shame. And I will use that airport again and again. And I nor be Fulani.
