Where is the location of the building
Is the 1.5M only labour?

Location is Owerri and 1.5 million is only labour fee.

I have been quoted 1.5 million naira labour cost only to plaster 4 bedroom flats of 6 units. The quote includes plastering parapet and bottom deck.

I was also quoted 1,500 each for window dressing and 2,500 naira each for door dressing.

Is the quote reasonable?

Hi All,
Is there any difference between builder and a building site engineer?

Can a building site engineer also handle house building project or should I look for a builder?

Please I need your honest opinions.

The Fire Trucks have already been fully paid for and waiting delivery by early next year

The manufacture is building the 3 Fire trucks from scratch not off the shelf

And the avio bridges too
Thanks bros, since they knew that the truck won't be ready, why will the govt tells us that it will be ready by the end of October. Not that I am a pessimist but we are know how projects are abandoned in Nigeria.

It gladdens my heart that Anambra airport will be opened this weekend. My only concern is that, the remaining work such as the avio bridges won't be abandoned?

What about the new cat 9 fire trucks that was meant to arrive in October, still haven't arrived.

Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu

 Share

The Akanu Ibiam Internation Airport, Enugu is scheduled to reopen for international flights beginning from August 2021

Njenje Media in a report quoted the chairman of South-East Governors Committee on AKanu Ibiam Airport Rehabilitation and Palliatives Monitoring Team, Chief Engineer Okoye as confirming that all is set for Airlines to resume International operations.

Recall that the Akanu Ibiam International Airport has been shutdown for International travels for two years. Though, the Airport resumed local flights in August 2020.


There are also strong indications that more Airlines will join in operating the Enugu route before the end of the year. As of today, Ethiopian Airlines remain the only international Airline that flew into Enugu before its closure for runway repairs in 2019.

With this news, international travellers are gearing up to resume their trip through their preferred airport.

It is being awaited that the relevant authorities will soon make an official public announcement and issue NOTAM as to the exact date in August for the resumption of the flight, Njenje Media added in the report

Wow, I am impressed. Once the airport is completed with the installation of ILS, we will be receiving international flight 24/7. This is what FG couldn't do at Enugu airport because they hated us.

Thanks very much for the update.
It would be good if the DVOR installation pictures update can be uploaded if anyone has one?
Politics / Re: Update on developments in Anambra state-photos by ARROBA(m): 7:17am On Jul 23, 2021
Does anyone know whether they will install the airfield lighting and ILS before the airport is commissioned?

Without night landing lights/ILS and airfield lighting, international cargo flights won't be able to land at night. So we really need this to be installed for it to be considered fully an International Airport.

Anyone able to confirm whether they have actually started the installation of airfield lighting?

Udo diri umuigbo.

Ethiopian Airlines to restart flight operations to Enugu, Kano airports soon

Recently, Ethiopian Airlines operated a special flight to Malam Aminu Kano International Airport as part of the gradual process of reopening the Airport.

Ethiopian Airlines is the only international airline that operates to Akanu Ibiam International Airport Enugu since it was gazetted as an International Airport.

It is also one of the airlines that operate into MAKIA in Kano. Ethiopian has been operating in Nigeria since 1960 and has stayed with Nigeria during good and difficult times.

When the Abuja Airport was closed for repairs ET was the only international airline that flew to the alternative airport in Kaduna.

Ethiopian Airlines is eager to provide our passengers with our traditional world-class service in the most technically advanced aircraft in the world.

Ethiopian is the first airline to bring the B787 Dreamliner to all four airports in Nigeria. It was also the first to bring the Airbus A350 to Nigeria.
Before the COVID-19 lockdown Ethiopian Airlines operated to four airports in Nigeria. Since the gradual re-opening of the Airspace in Nigeria only Lagos and Abuja airports were allowed for international flights.

With the completion of the new airport terminals and further improvements in COVID-19 situation in Nigeria, the Federal Government has announced a phased Reopening of Kano, Enugu and Port Harcourt Airports for International flights.

Ethiopian Airlines will soon announce Schedules for flight operations to Enugu and Kano.

Thanks spyder880. Someoneone quoted me 1.8 million naira just for the wood work, installation of the roofing sheets and gutter for the attached building photo.
The quote doesn't include the carpentery work for the parapet.

Don't you think the quote is expensive?

Exactly.

I am after the Labour cost\estimate on average(excluding the roofing sheets) for only roofing woodwork for a 3 bedroom, 3 story building(counting from the ground floor). This Labour cost should be inclusive of placing\installing the roofing sheets on the roofing woodwork.

P.S. I will be using stone coated roofing sheet.
