Airports up and down what about the economy...and improving the purchasing power of the masses

Very soon all these airport will be moribund as many people no get money for flights again.


Even Asaba airport dey struggle for passengers as Benin Airport is just 45 minutes from it.

Na Ebonyi airport go worst pass. Enugu airport is just 30 minutes to Ebonyi airport, Anambra airport is just 45 minutes from Enugu airport. So who are those going to be using all these airports in rural states...

That's why Abia refused to build airport, because most Abians use Owerri and PH airport
.

You don't need to travel 45minutes or more on the road just to board a plane.
Asaba Airport can get patronage from Onitsha business men in Anambra State.

Abia do not have any excuse not to build one, they can't even justify the allocations &huge IGR they have with real Development &their State Government's inability to tackle Infrastructure deficit due to bad Governance the State has been experiencing since 1999.

Before before, I thought that this Fayemi was an educated somebody and a progressive politician, but realise he is a failure and fake progreThief like Fashola, Ambode and the other APC crooks led by JagaBandit ThiefNuibu.
How did we allow these guys to scam us so easily and for so long? What is the explanation? Is it just propaganda and lies? Or something else?

Why can’t they employ teachers to provide free education plus other progressive governance outcomes
You're ignorant of what is going on Ekiti state, so it's better you hold your peace.
I don't like him, but he has built more new mega schools than most Nigerian governors, living or dead. No be teachers dey teach for the new school?

U have said it all my friend. The truth be told, some of these airports are not viable at all. For example, benin airport is still be prefered by passengers traveling to edo, delta and ondo state than asaba airport. I remembered plying benin-asaba road while traveling to anambra state for an engagement and i saw the airport with no plane, going out and coming in. What a waste resourc

....
One of the ambitious projects this year is the airport for which the government has given an August completion date. Is it feasible and how will it improve the economy of Ekiti?

I am happy with the question. Life is a process and believe me, we are looking at Ekiti of tomorrow, not Ekiti of today. Some people are saying we don’t need airport in Ekiti but let me start answering them like this: ours is a cargo airport, 3.2 kilometers runway which is completed already. The stone base is ongoing, the asphalt is ongoing. Indeed, a massive construction is going on there. The foundation of the terminal building is set and I can tell you that the August date is sacrosanct. We are making that place an agricultural hub, a place of connectivity. Don’t forget that we have the iconic Afe Babalola University very close to the airport, and opposite it, we have the state’s knowledge zone, which we call knowledge city where we have industrial park. Going beyond that, that is where we have the last train bus stop that is coming soon, by the grace of God. We are looking at Ekiti as the agricultural hub of Nigeria. Look at the investment of the government in agriculture and that is why we are constructing the airport. We are looking at how we will move out all our agricultural produce because if we are investing heavily on agriculture, then you must look at how to move those goods out. That is the purpose. We want to feed the South-West and even the nation through our produce. We have an airport that will serve its benefits. It is called agro-allied airport. It is different from the conventional airport that we have in Akure. Through the airport, we are making Ekiti the agricultural hub in Nigeria....

Most of these projects are means of siphoning. You ever wondered while Osun was owing salaries running into double digit months. Aregbesola was busy awarding contracts and commissioning projects till his last day in office.

Congratulations Ekiti. Perhaps the airport will easy off the pressure on Ondo and Benin airports.
Can you expatiate on this. Cos I don’t understand the pressure on Ondo and Benin airports as commercial airliners hardly fly these routes particularly Ondo.

The airport isn't for the Masses, it's for themselves (the elites). Whenever they land in Lagos from abroad, they'll just book a private jet directly to their state instead of traveling by road which is very dangerous.
Exactly, cos I’m wondering which commercial airline will fly to Ekiti, even the one in Ibadan is still under utilized.

That is not an Airport but a concrete airstrip; after they will say they are professors.

Ekiti and Ondo States are Nigerian's cannabis capitals where the tastiest and most potent African bush is grown by seasoned farmers steeped in the horticultural artform over the course of generations.

With this new airport, a newly legalized medical marijuana industry in Nigeria will already have a gateway to the world, where flotillas of aircraft can line up to take off and lumber into African skies destined for parts unknown while laden with the highest quality medical marijuana Africa has to offer.

If you are not the ignorant person here, won’t you know that you can’t move to the complex without mastering the basics?
When you are ready to show your non-ignorance status, please let us know how many thousands of teachers useless rogue Fayemi employed each year to have 100% enrolment of children, as they have in the abroad that he knows about.

Ignorance is really bad. Every state should have at least one Airport no matter how small. The larger or busier states like Lagos ought to have more than one airport.

Why?

Airports plus good road network will automatically boost the manufacturing, tourism, postal and logistics businesses especially online shopping and thereby create millions of jobs for the unemployed.

Educate yourself and think deeply before spilling your thoughts.
God bless you, Bro!!
