Akwa Ibom State Government investment in road construction across the state.

Whats wrong with Nigerians? Is public infrastructure designed to make money? Govt. is not a bussiness, thier purpose is for human development not for money making.

There are certain projects that only Govt. can provide like roads and drainages for example, how many roads make money? even the tolled ones abroad only recover a fraction that was invested in building them. Thats why its a public infra structure.

Another example, Public Library/ public Schools are they built to make money? No, they are for public good.

Sports stadiums are built by Govt for Public good The primary goal is not to make money. Yes even the big stadium abroad google any of the big stadiums and see how much money they make for the city directly form gate takings.

Most clubs abroad especially in the USA, The stadium are owned by city/county Govt. and not the clubs, the city does not make money directly from the stadium takings but mostly indirectly from other bussiness that they attract and the human development that it will attract to their cities and its people.

Do athletes/ football players pay taxes? do managers pay taxes, Do people who visit the stadium by food, drinks etc, do that pay VAT tax when they buy those things or how about the vendors that sell those things do they pay taxes? and who do they pay it to? when people visit the stadium for matches do they use public transport and hotels, do the taxi drivers and hotel owners pay taxes? if they do, Who do they pay it to?

Am tired of some of you guys who dont know but pretend like you know so much.

Second Runway at The State Owned International Airport in Uyo, The Only State owned and Maintained CAT 2 Airport in Nigeria with Instrument Landing System ILS that enable planes to land in bad weather and at night when there is less visibility.

The AKIA (QUO) is the only airport in Nigeria Besides the federally owned Lagos and Abuja with functional ILS and night landing capabilities at the moment.

Work has reached 90% completion Govt will soon open for use, this great investment that will officially cement AKIA as the airport with the best runway in West Africa.

Interestingly the 2nd runway has the same CBT that will support Aircraft weight, an an impressive length of 3.5km x 60m width as the first runway, and is designed for the biggest/widest Aircraft in the world.
The second runway will also function as a taxiway, this is a very innovative runway design that will allow the airport to remain open in event of the shutdown of any of the runway either for emergency or for maintenance work. .

This type of runways are uncommon in West Africa, even the Nations capital Abuja Airport has only one runway which was recently shutdown for maintenance, crippling Nigerias Economy that is already walking on crutches.

The Airport is also the home to the biggest Aircraft Maintenance, Repair and overhaul MRO facility building in West Africa, Which will soon open for business.
