Guess Dave Umahi can see where his senseless efulefu landed him? "Port Harcourt International Airport renamed Obafemi Jeremiah Awolowo" Why? Why not name the Ibadan airport after Awo like Awo Hall in UI or Liberty Stadium?

Probably an oversight! Had he remembered, he’d probably have named it Benjamin Adekunle Int’l Airport…..you know, just to pepperdem nyamiris!

Is Muritala Mohammed from the southwest or Nnamdi Azikwe From the north that they named Lagos and Abuja airport after. See yourself as a Nigerian . Tribalism will take us no where

I think you’re being deliberately evasive here! Lagos and Abuja are national centres….supposedly national melting-pots built with our collective wealth! In this regard, their int’l airports can be named after any national personality…..and there seems to be a preference for choosing personalities from other regions in keeping with the national theme!

Same can’t be said for other prominent cities like Kano, Port Harcourt, Enugu or Ibadan! These, at best, are regional centres of political, economic and cultural significance!

I think you’re confusing him with the military administrator of the Western Region at the time whose name escapes me at the moment.
