BigIyanga: What other aviation business takes place in kottoka airport in ghana, outside passenger traffic? In Akwa ibom there's a maintenance hangar, for aircraft maintenance - big bussiness There is an anchor airline- ibom air state owned- big bussiness. There is facility for cargo management which ibom air will support- big business. And there is plans to build an aviation training school, where pilot can get their commercial liscence, right there at the airport. Tell me what business are in kotoka airport besides passenger traffic handling. Which by the way the new terminal in uyo is designed for 1million pax a year. Aviation is not only about passenger handling only If you've ever been to uyo airport, at the entrance of the airport you will see a large Industrial farm, with about 15 gigantic green houses. Those green houses produces, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers etc in commercial quantities, if capacity is expanded, that's another stream of income, that can easily be packed on a plane and arrives any destination around the world fresh, not to talk of our seafood. |

excess4luv:Industrlization is a process not a destination. The process has started in Akwa ibom. Once our ports are ready for easy evacuation it will speed up the process. Air Port, about to be updated to international with cargo handling facilities, Seaport about to commences construction. Several ventures already started, foreign investors coming in gradually. Go read up on BUA refinery, OCP fertilizers, sterling oil refinery. Dangote gas pipeline that will Channel gas from ibeno in Aks passing through all Nigerdelta states to Europe via morroco. By the way do you know any state in Nigeria, that has more accessible and standard road networks within its territory than Akwa ibom. All the structures that encourages industrial revolution is Bing gradually put in place in Akwa ibom. 2 Likes |

OVB123:Is that not the question all over Nigeria? At least in Akwa ibom we can point to several industries that has opened its doors in the past 8yrs, unlike in other parts of the nation where they are shutting down. 1).Four points by sheraton ikot ekpene. Operated by marriot group. 2). Ibom Air. 3). Ibom Air MRO. 4). Jubilee syringe manufacturing. 5). Electric metering manufacturers. 6).Isreali owned, Mimshack mekavim car assembly plant. Itu 7).ibom specialist hospital . Several general hospitals in the state renovated to 21st century standards. 9). Kings flour mills 10). Greenwell fertilizer Etc At least we can point to several ventures in akwa ibom that has started operations not to mention the ocp fertilizer that's under construction by morrocan govt and Aksg, the 200 barrel per day BUA refinery at ibeno under construction. The 50,000bpd sterling oil refinery under construction in eastern obolo etc. And the ibom deep seaport. Great things are happening in Akwa ibom. But the job creation could be better. Akwa ibom has a population of 7million people. It's difficult to create jobs for all. But the state is trying better than others in the country. Every state in Nigeria has youths travelling to Lagos and Abuja for employment, so don't single Aks out. 3 Likes |

nwadiuko1:We just like bogus names/ titles in Nigeria. What's the meaning of "cargo airport". Cargo handling is just an aspect of commercial aviation. Specially designated airports for cargo are very rare. Even FedEx, Ups amazon (prime air) which are the giants of cargo operations in the world operate out of conventional airports. A cargo operation only requires a specialized warehouse for storage and handling. Like the one being built in Uyo,Nigeria. Sometimes separate apron but not always. Does it mean that tha cargo designated airports in Nigeria does not handle passengers services 3 Likes |
