Obi Criticized Abuja Airport's Escalator, And It Got Closed For Maintenance. by BluntCrazeMan: 5:37pm On Jan 25
As posted by IkukuomaC

It took Mr Peter Obi calling out Abuja airport authority over inability to fix it's elevator and escalator for them to finally shut it down

We are officially in the opposition..


..


Peter Obi had earlier posted:
Just yesterday, I saw a heart-wrenching sight of a physically challenged traveller in a wheelchair being carried up the stairs by four men, at the Nnamdi Azikiwe airport, Abuja because neither the elevator nor the escalator had been functional, for the past 3 months.

The situation becomes more disturbing when you imagine that such is happening in our nation's capital, where our dignitaries and foreign investors travel through constantly. This was the same Airport and the same day that our dear President flew out on a private visit .

I have been wondering what is private for a sitting President who is not on vacation to embark on a publicly funded ‘private’ visit.
May I humbly remind the President that he is now a public national asset.

Therefore, all his movements now should be public knowledge and matters of public interest. Even when he needs a private visit like a holiday, family gathering, etc, he should state so, which is graciously allowed, but private visits, like the one he has embarked on now, should be done at his expense and not at public cost. That is part of the cost-cutting measures desperately needed by the nation now. We now require savings of sorts to deal with every little issue that requires attention, like the maintenance of small public assets.

Otherwise, how do we explain as a country, that for the past three months both the escalator and elevator at the domestic wing of Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport, Abuja, has remained dysfunctional?

I often wonder how we the leaders feel traveling in sophisticated manners while the majority of our infrastructure being used by the majority, including our foreign investors, is left dilapidated.

The situation we find ourselves in calls for such drastic cuts in the cost of governance, and attendant savings, to be appropriately used for every minor public good. That is the spirit of the New Nigeria we are clamoring for.

I must however acknowledge some efforts by the President to cut costs like his recent 60% cost on travel but that is still insignificant given the quantum of problems waiting to be tackled like the elevator issue in our prime airport. -PO

Let's continue to keep our eyes seriously on them..

They will have to rush to “Pretend” to be doing the right things.
Then we will continue to keep eyes on them even further.

And then, they will have no other options than to actually do the right things.

Ok… That was constructive criticism.

We accept that from Obi.

It is good to have a vocal opposition to keep the govt on its toes.

This is what happens in advanced democracies.

God bless Nigeria.

For the past few months, Peter obi is the one giving tinubu and his team direction.
Even at that, it is so difficult on them to carry full actions because it is so unnatural for them

Peter obi, the authentic and orginal symbol of the new Nigeria which will surely happen.

Any other person is a chinko.

Peter Obi did not influence anything. On a norm, that escalator, that leads to the boarding gate, breaks down frequently and you will always see that sign after some few hours. So na normal thing for Abuja Airport (domestic wing).

Peter Obi

The president I voted for.

There's this joy I get whenever I remember I actually cast my vote for him, and my vote ensured he defeated the Lagos blueprint builder, beating him blue and black.

So you're now saying it is normal for an escalator in the second busiest airport in nigeria to be breaking down frequently? shocked that nobody should worry about it?

Just because you have corn in your back pocket?

Just saying it as it is. That escalator breakdown frequently and the engineers repair them. They did not start working on it because of Peter Obi, it has been happening and that is how they deal with it.

Rubbish.

So,, can someone tell them to replace all the escalators and elevators entirely??

We're tired of having them breaking down frequently,, only to be repaired after 3-months..

We are celebrating faulty escalators and elevators that constantly break down, and were left in such a poor broken-down state for long.
