Are you aware that some monuments are named after Zik, King Jaja etc in the SW, especially Lagos and Ibadan?


It wasn't named by FG. But the people of those regions decides to name it that way.

Ronald Regan Airport, JFk Airport, George Bush Airport, John Dulles Airport, Hartsfield Jackson Airport, O Hare Airport, Charles De Gaule Airport. I guess all those are black monkeys too dumb ass.

How do those names sound to you?

Plus its a 1st World country. Your country is fourth 3rd

that are below animal standard.

I am A Yoruba.
Not in Support of Portharcourt Airport Been named after Awolowo.
This is very insensitive,After the name Up,and the next Morning,it’s been destroyed,the same Government will be complaining about Agitation.
What Happened to the Hero’s from the SS both the dead and the living ( Wike nko APC living Hero lol) lol lol .
Joke Apart if an Airport in Osun named change to Okadigbo won’t go well with the resident there why should PH Airport name changed to Awolowo be tolerated.

Buhari already did this just before he handed over..

But why renaming Nasarawa Airport after the caliphate..? Nasarawa are 60% Christian state..

Also, does it mean that the people of South South has no Icon that Port Harcourt Airport can be named after..? Awolowo has other National monuments been named after him.. GEJ should have been the one in place of Awolowo..
But Abuja airport was named after Zik and Lagos after Muritala Muhammed, do no issues.
My problem na that dan fodio with Nasarawa it's an insult to the middle belt.

So the South South has no leadership that PH Airport has to be renamed to Awo? Just asking oooh


naptu2:
Nnamdi Azikiwe Road Kaduna, Olu Obasanjo Road Port-Harcourt, Alfred Rewane Way Lagos, Muhammadu Buhari Bridge Anambra-Delta, Yakubu Gowon Stadium Port-Harcourt, etc.

It doesn't have to be in the town or region that the person comes from.

naptu2:


The facility does not need to be in the South-West before it can be named after Awolowo. Usman Dan Fodio is associated with Sokoto, which is in the North-West, but an airport in Nasarawa, which is in the North-Central, was named after him.

Unfortunately so.

It is the typical British Empire playbook for their colonies:
Give the most important jobs to the least qualified people, and then sit and watch everything crumble and fight amongst themselves.
It is senseless to continue blaming Britain many decades after independence. They are human beings like you.

I'm definitely not one those who continue to blame colonialism or the west for the many many failures of the African people.
Almost on daily basis, I debate with people who do that. I believe that destiny of the African people lie squarely in the hands of the African people.

Having said that. It still remains true that the European colonial Template was basically to identify unqualified people, often sociopaths, to occupy very important and sensitive positions in their colonies and former colonies.

You see the mistake you are still making, so you mean a kidnapper is an extreme case compared to a government official who stole palliatives to feed children in IDP camps?

Na wa o, who measures the cases to extreme and non extreme, before we go too far, the issue was that renaming of airport now has no single benefit to the aviation sector and also to Nigerians.

Among all the problems in the aviation sector presently including the Nigerian air scam tell me what a name change is more important among all the problems in the sector now.

If you can't then it means that both you and Tinubu are simply putting the cart before the horse, what Nigerians need now is not name change, that was how Buhari used 8 years to focus on the most irrelevant things and wasted resources and time of Nigerians.

Please simply tell me what Tinubu has done in the aviation sector since he entered and which problem name change is more important than
among all the problems facing the aviation sector presently for him to feel name change is the first problem to tackle?

Amazing!
Has it occurred to you that the import of the name changes has more to do with remembering and honouring the contributions of the eminent individuals involved than it has on improving the “aviation sector” you keep shouting about?
Some administrations choose to change the name of the currency or even the name of the entire country itself. The perceived effect of such actions are always subjective….I repeat subjective!
When you get there, if ever, decide on what is a priority for you and let’s stop laying ground rules for others please. Wait for your turn!

I do not need to wait for my turn to demand for good governance, it is my right as a citizen to get good governance and demand for it if I am not getting it, name change should be the least of Tinubu's priority right now in the aviation sector...

Major international airport in the north is named after an Easterner, Major airport in the west is name after a Southerner, it's only fair the remaining major airport in the southern region be named after a westerner. Be fair and reasonable.

Port Harcourt airport should have been named after a SS indegene, since all the airport in the north and sw were named after prominent men from the region why not the SS too, why always political leaders? Why can other notable Nigerians be immortalized, considering the fact that politicians have taken more from us and they are largely the reason why Nigeria is in a sorry state I find it insensitive that when an a national award is to be given or someone is to be immortalized these set of individuals are always the first, I don't think dan fodio should have been on this list either considering the fact he was a genocidal religious maniac, everywhere in the world historic figures named after racist and slave traders are being pulled down, why immortalized and individual like uthman Dan fodio.
You celebrate your Benin,Oyo empires etc and their rulers which is basically how you invaded and subjugated other people but others should call theirs maniacs. Will you getat from hia!

Nonsense....Port Harcourt was part of old Western region which was headed by Obafemi Awolowo. So renaming the airport after him is still in order. And besides Federal Institutions can be named after anybody.
when was PH part of the old western region?
