Okay, that's the one that has something like Iron pillars on it

Rocksvibes234:
Please where is the terminal building located?, I couldn't see it when I visited there.

ANSMEDIA:
Some videos of Anambra International Airport Tower. An insider working with the construction company had to manage to get these videos of the internal works ongoing at the Tower building.

The Tower building should be around 10 storey(height) by now. International airports of international standards have tall Tower buildings like the one being built in Anambra international airport.

The Tower building is being cast all through in line with the international best practices. My contact on the inside promised to get video/pictures of the Terminal Building soon.

Airports are super capital intensive that even rich western countries can develop them in one single swing. The development of airports are phased over so many years so that the resources generated through operation of the airports are ploughed into upgrading of the infrastructure at the airport. To develop this airport to its full specification, the development must be phased over a few years. The Phase 1 is the very important to get it operational and begin to generate resources that can be used for its further development.

Phase 1: By April 2021: Completion of 3.5KM Runway, 12 stories high Control Tower and Basic terminal building
Operational capability: Daylight domestic flights

Phase 2: By December 2025: Completion of Taxiway, Permanent Passenger and Cargo terminals, Installation of Cat 2 ILS and Airfield lighting system. Completion of aviation fuel depot at the airport linked by pipeline to Orient Modular refinery.
Operational capability: Night landing, International Flights, Major aviation fuel facility for the West African sub-region.

Phase 3: By December 2050: Completion of the second parallel runway and taxiways. Expansion of the Passenger and Cargo terminal to full capacity.
Operational capability: More international airlines use the airport as a regional transit hub for continental flights.

PROUDIGBO:
They should plant trees on both sides of the road to make the drive to and from the airport scenic and impressive for visitors, investors and tourists coming into the state. Also, world class route signage should be included in the construction.

6-lanes Anambra international airport road under construction. The road is about 10km stretch to the airport. From the information available they have done earthworks and granite up to 8km, remaining 2km to reach the airport site before the actual asphalt starts. As at the time of getting the pictures, massive work that involves about 5 major contractors were at the airport precinct working to beat the commissioning date.

ChimaAdeoye:
If they get the control tower & the runway right, the rest such as tarmac, taxiway and terminal building can easily be built and perfected over time.

The terminal building can be built in phases so that the first phase is a small building that basically allows the airport to begin operations as soon as the runway and tower are ready.

Gradual improvements over time with building the permanent imposing edifice of the final terminal building and completion of the taxiways can be done gradually as the airport is in operation and continues to develop. Similar to how Uyo airport started operations with the Runway, Control tower and a temporary terminal building. But today has completed the airport taxiways, and now working on the permanent superstructure of the final terminal building.

IDENNAA:
ANAMBRA State is making plans to build a world-class market that befits Awka, the state capital.

Briefing newsmen in his office at Awka, the Commissioner for Trade, Commerce, Market and Wealth Creation and Industry, Anambra State, Dr. Christian Chukwuma Madubuko stated that the market to be built must be of international standard.

He argued that the state capital is long overdue for a standard market, noting that the congested Eke Awka Market does not portray the right image needed to profile the state, the most populous and industrialized state in the South East in Nigeria. He cited the Austrian standard as the benchmark for the international market. “This means the market must have motor parks, fire station, and every other thing you can think of in a modern market.”


The commissioner condemned the attitude of some individuals who park their vehicles anywhere they like in the market; and some market leaders who build illegal shops and all sorts of attachments inside the market, to make money for themselves, describing the situation as abnormal and totally unacceptable by Anambra State government.

Dr. Madubuko stressed that markets ought to have wide pathways to allow free flow of vehicles, also pedestrians’ paths for human traffic. He pointed out that markets are supposed to be the cleanest place, with proper drainage and waste disposal system, all these which will be a common feature in the new Awka market.

The commissioner revealed that the proposed new market would be rid of fraudsters, who collect revenue from traders and to enrich themselves; dupe and pickpockets, who deceive and steal from unsuspecting buyers.

The Commissioner therefore declared that in no distant time, Eke Awka Market must surely be decongested and rebuilt to reach modern standards because the state government is making efforts to give Ndi Anambra the best they deserved.

IDENNAA:
Ok , the proposed market is to be sited at a different location but I am concerned about the current state of eke Awka and all these other condemnations by the Commissioner of individuals who build stalls indiscriminately in the market is nothing but shameful. What is the job of the Commissioner and the task force established by the state?

The state is crying over civilians who are breaking laws while they (government) do nothing about it. Obiano has been a governor for 6yrs plus yet nothing has been done about eke Awka. Motorist , petty traders , illegal stalls , hawkers etc have turned our state capital into a dumpster. It's a failure of Obiano government!

IDENNAA:
Nwanne, why do you have this habit of ignoring question posed by Ndi Anambra? Do you think we are stupid or what. I know you work for the state and the best you can do is to give us some reasonable response.

Where are the trees along our major roads and streets...this kills me!

I have like a million questions but I just want simple answers.
