Do you know the meaning of cargo airport?

So, is it a passenger or cargo airport.

I wish Ekiti state success. But I'm baffled that they put all this money into building an airport.

The total number of people flying from Ekiti to Lagos per day is not up to 50. They currently fly through Akure, Ondo State, which is about 50mins away. Which airline is going to detour to Ado Ekiti to pick 15 or 20 people

If they say it's for cargo, where is the demand for cargo flights in Ekiti when Federal govt has almost completed a new cargo section in Akure. Ekiti mainly produces rice, Cassava, yam, maybe plantain too. So, are they planning to fly cassava to London?

Nigeria is a perplexing and confounding country.

Why in a hurry to commission an unfinished project?



That thing looks like piggery extension.



Government is a continuous thing for goodness sake.



The next governor can also commission it when completed.

There's nothing wrong with the size of the airport. Ekiti has one of the smallest populations is Nigeria. Building a large airport just for the sake of it would be meaningless.

I've travelled to a few of the small West African countries, and one in particular, the national airport is not as good as this.

Many small airports in Europe are not bigger or more beautiful than Ekiti's.

To make matters worse.

Ogun State is building a massive cargo airport (makes sense). Federal govt is building a new cargo section at Akure airport (viability is doubtful). Now, Ekiti, a relatively poor State has poured it's scarse resources into cargo airport too.

All neighboring states!

Neither Ondo nor Ekiti produce enough staple foods to feed themselves. So, what do they plan to cargo abroad.

Abi, is it for importation? How many goods from China end up in Ekiti and Ondo state weekly to justify 2 cargo airports.

I'm not even talking about the size. Everything about that airport shows mediocrity.

How can an airport in 2023 be looking like this and you think it's okay? Are you for real?

Even in the North where airports are only used for Hajj, they all have far better and aesthetically pleasing airports.

My God, this looks like a village primary school. No airport in 2023 should look like this, not even in South Sudan!

At times, things look worse in pictures than they look in real life.

Ekiti can barely pay teachers salaries, so how does it matter whether their airport is aesthetically pleasing.

Functionality matters most. Quit the delusion of comparing with what you see on the internet in other countries. Nigeria is a poor country, and Ekiti is one of the poorest states within it.

May be, the building could be better, but that's not the real issue. It is that the project seems unjustifiable. The cladding of the building is dull & unimpressive, but that can be changed in the future.

I gave you examples of airports I've been to outside Nigeria that are not much better than this. What's important to most travellers is the quality of service and how quickly you can check in and out.

This is not intended to handle a massive number of people or planes. So, it doesn't need to be glamorous if the state can't afford it.

Please we have a duty to enlighten Nigerians, especially those we see on the streets.

This country is poor, very poor.

When they hear billions, they start wailing. They don't know that the value of naira is now worthless.

What the federal government budgets is less than what one state in America (for instance, Maryland) budgets. And we keep shouting that we are rich cheesy

Until Nigeria breaks away from oil and gas and explore other revenue sources, this country will continue to be the world's poverty capital.

An aviation expert once said that the largely inactive state airports scattered around Nigeria present great investment opportunities for aviation entrepreneurs to exploit using REGIONAL JET PLANES like in the US.

Strange nobody is taking advantage.

It is now clear to the doubting Thomases that Osun State is restored to a PDP State again. The July 16th rejection of Oyetola was never a fluke. The PDP had called on the Osun State people to avoid Oyetola and his OSSIEC funeral yesterday, and the people did exactly what the PDP requested by discarding the exercise largely. It was like the outgoing Governor was a leper. This again brought to the fore the deception by Mr Oyetola when he said he was going to raise 1 million votes for Tinubu in Osun State. The same people who distanced and avoided the APC yesterday are the very people that shall vote come February and we are resolute. Byebye to radarada in Osun State. The whole state is now liberated under Governor Ademola Adeleke IMOLE

A poor state like Ekiti does not need an Airport period. Some would argue it's for Cargo but the Akure Cargo Airport currently being expanded is just a few minutes drive away.
I don't even want to talk about the sub-standard facilities.
Unfortunately, a great majority of Nigerians are too daft to know what they actually need. This explains the praise singing charade during the commissioning
