BKayy:
Thanks for changing the title.

It is not about the subject, but about you not being able to read before typing nonsense

BKayy:
This is the 3rd time you lots are posting these particular pictures this week.
This is not an update but a repetition.


I hate what I don't like.
Don't for once assume that all of us here have amnesia like the ignoramuses that swallow your repeated manifestos every 4 years.

Post recent pictures my friend

You type before you read. Give yourself some break

Update on the planned commissioning of Anambra state international cargo and passenger airport

Anambra International Cargo and Passenger Airport, Umueri will be commissioned officially tomorrow, Saturday, October 30, 2021 as originally planned.

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), which had earlier demobilized its equipment, is right now re-mobilizing.

Governor Willie Obiano, who went to Abuja this morning to neutralize the poisoned arrows from opponents is back in the state. He returned with every necessary paper and even more.

Kudos to Anambra people and their ebullient leader who fights like a lion.

Please, ladies and gentlemen, click your glasses.

Anambra Election: Andy Uba of APC has presented a well decorated cow as his symbol of what is to be his agenda.

ChimaAdeoye:
I have also wondered if Mazi Ezeoke was somehow bias in his presentations of Ebonyi and Anambra airports. I know he once said Anambra airport would not be completed this year while Ebonyi airport would because he trusted Umahi more as a project manager.

Anyhow whether he is or not, this airport became a reality before Dave Umahi's hyperbole. Truly i respect what Umahi has done and achieved in Ebonyi state nonetheless.

Mazi Ezeoke is now on YouTube. He has made a 360 degrees turn around. Anambra amaka

No it is not sold out, it only means airport is not open for domestic flight.

No it is sold out, because some people were lucky to book before it eventually sold out

I saw the same thing. 31st ticket from Abuja to Anambra is sold out already within few hours

Anambra international airport road. The final asphalt coating layer has just been completed and ready for marking. Streetlight installation has been completed on the long stretch of the dual carriageway.

Just read the comments from this vlog to see actually how Obiano is rated. Anambra is truly a great state and top in the region and among the few tops in Nigeria. Anambra is the fastest developing state in Nigeria with worldclass international airport that will serve the international travel needs of the Igbos of the eastern Nigeria

ANAMBRA AIRPORT: OBIANO'S LEGACY SET TO LAUNCH SOLUDO'S GREATER ANAMBRA

The Anambra International cargo and passenger airport is a Category ( CAT ) 4F airport. This means that an A380 aircraft or an Airbus can land comfortably in the airport.

As it gears towards full flight operations, here are 10 remarkable facts about the Anambra Airport as detailed by the Commissioner for Works, Anambra State, Engr, Marcel Ifejiofor.

1. THE RUNWAY: The runway is the second longest runway in Nigeria with:
- Length - 3.7km and a racer of 1km at both ends of the runway. Added together, the total length of the runway becomes 5.7km making it the second longest runway in the world.
- Width - 60 m
- Strip - 440 metres on either side of the runway

2. RUNWAY LIGHTING: The runway is equipped with CAT 2 lighting system. This implies that a plane can be guided by the light to land safely even in adverse weather conditions.

3. SATELLITE LANDING SYSTEM: The airport is equipped with a satellite landing system (SLS). This provides for satellite assisted landing of aircrafts should the runway lights fail for any reason.

4 TAXI WAY: The airport has two taxi ways.

5. THE APRON:  The airport apron measures 300 metres by 200 metres.
- It can accommodate 8 Boeing 747 aircrafts the same time.
- It is built on a rigid pavement of concrete with a thickness measuring 560mm and reinforced top and bottom with concrete measuring 16mm in thickness.

- A departure and arrival lounge
- There are are 36 shops in the building
- There are three lifts and three escalators
- Two Avio bridges each equipped with dual boarding passages. This means that four aircrafts can take passengers at the same time.

8. RESCUE AND FIRE FIGHTING SERVICES: The airport is CAT 9 airport
- It has three fire tenders (fire engines) that can shoot water up to the height of the control tower.
- The tenders can be controlled by the driver alone.
- The airport is also equipped with 20 water hydrants.

9. WATER: The airport is equipped with two industrial boreholes which pumps water into:
- Tank 1 - 640 cubic metres
- Tank 2 -  240 cubic metres
- There's also a water treatment plant that takes water to overhead tanks.
-The total volume of overhead tanks is 123 cubic metres.

10. POWER:  A 33 KVA line drawn from Agụ Awka to the airport guarantees an 18 hour power supply. 
- Two units of 500KVA generators serves as backup to provide  power always.

NOTE: The airport was built in a record time of 15 months.

- It was built by Nine contractors and nine service providers

- It was built by the Willie Obiano led Anambra State Government without borrowing a dime.

- Also no single contractor is owed a kobo.

There's seems to be another platform being built in Onitsha by Julius Berger where ships can equally berth in Onitsha

Onitsha is a great city and the economic hub of the eastern Nigeria, 2nd Niger bridge will open a new corridor and further expand Onitsha mega city .
