Okija to Anambra Airport is like travelling to another world compared to Owerri Airport

imaxdocuments:
Onye mgbu this is Owerri airport to Okija

Now show us Okija to Umuleri Airport

imaxdocuments:
Bkayy please come and compare distances

You are more stupid than I thought.
Who in his right senses will leave Asaba Airport and move from Onitsha to Owerri.
And please, next time make your pictures to be clearer.
If you want to compare Onitsha, you do it with the jungle airport and Asaba airport

Shiver99:
The result of abundance and good geographical locations inspired critical thinking and with critical thinking it in turn inspired a strong sense of independence. When someone is educated, they are difficult to enslave, and that was no different for Ancient Igbos.

Educated with ideas of freedom and equity, there was very little way a demagogue could force themselves into society and label themselves a "king" or 'Emperor" as we see in some other groups. The thought for many Igbos then and now was even repulsive, and they looked on at more feudal neighbours with some curiosity, some concern, and some mockery.

Thus, Igbos became the originators of one of the most unique forms of democracy known to man.

A proud tradition that Igbos still upheld to this day.

Thank you my brother.
We never had kings and will never have.
All those lies about some people being kings are lies.
Eze Nri and Eze Aro were Priests

Onye mgbu. Please do your Google map via the same Onitsha-Owerri road to Okija. Two pictures different routes. Onye ori

LOL. E don clear say na person wey no dey travel I dey discus with.
So you don't know that Onitsha and Owerri are opposite of each other form Okija?
That is Okija is like in between Onitsha and Owerri. So if you go to Owerri through the left, Onitsha will be through the right

imaxdocuments:
This is the straight road from Anambra international airport via dual international airport road that connects the dual Onitsha-Awka-Enugu expressway. With these two infrastructures no part of Anambra will be far to the airport

Nkogheri.
Study the two pictures.
Nothing concerns Anambra South with that Airport.
I used Okija as a case study which is one of the closest to the airport

Yes it is 25mins from Anambra international to Okija, while it is more than 1hr to the local airport in Owerri. Here's the Google map, please show us Google map that covers Imo state airport

Bloody liar. Okija to Umuleri is 2hr plus. That is if the Animals in Upper iweka were evacuated.

Pure envy and frustration is worrying you

Even your government in Owerri is by far more insecure than the peaceful Upper Iweka.

Owerri is such a dangerous insecure killing field that no sane person would like to pass through that shithole town once it is past 5pm because the town is ravaged by very high insecurity occasioned by terrorists, UGM, kidnappers, armed-robbers etc. FACT

Atulu I am From Anambra. Nothing concerns me with Owerri.
Shame the hate in you

You are the one spewing nonsense and out of ignorance.

Anambra international airport to Okija is 25mins ,but it is about 1hr 30mins to Owerri airport.

From Anambra international airport it is a straight road from the airport via the dual airport road on to the dual Onitsha-Awka-Enugu expressway. But from Owerri airport it via the jungle of chaotic dilapidated roads that's infested with armed robbers, kidnappers, armed men, etc. No sane person would make sure mistake.

25 mins?
Jesus Christ what a bold lie. Do you know where Okija is?
Just type distance from Okija to Umuleri first before the Bush.
Or Okija to Just Onitsha.
Chai people can lie eh

Let me ask you a few questions:
1) if you are living in Obosi, Onitsha or Oba, which airport will you use? Umueri or Asaba.
2) If you are living in Ihembosi, Okija, Ihiala or Uli, would you use Owerri airport when you know that Owerri is now worse than Sambisa, when you know that Owerri is an insecure dungeon, when you know that Owerri is a killing field, when you know that passing through Owerri could cost you not just your car but your life.

Who would take such risk knowing that Upper Iweka is safer than even where Uzodimma lives in Owerri.

These are many reasons are why no one would dare leave Anambra to use airport in Imo state


[s][/s]

Even the centre of where UGM are battling Police is more safer THAN Upper Iweka. Fact

imaxdocuments:
Just read your post and see how dumb, silly, useless and hopeless you sound.

Imo airport is like 30mins to Owerri town, are you aware, intact imo airport is halfway between Owerri and Aba. Then calculate how many hours to Anambra from the airport.

Why would you think a sane person from Anambra would leave Anambra international airport and go through the jungle of Owerri with its associated insecurity and bad roads? Are you normal at all? Upper Iweka is more serene, safe than even the government house in Owerri.

Anambra international airport is centrally located to serve Anambra north, south and central.

Here's the Anambra international airport-Onitsha-Awka-Nnewi triangle. This was the reason the airport was sited in Umueri, coupled with the massive land space


[s][/s]

You are talking total rubbish.
30 mins from Owerri, then how many minutes from Okija, Ihiala, Uli, Ihembosi or Nnewi? Roughly 40 max.
Put the two together, less than 2hrs without the Chaos of Onitsha.
Now how many minutes to Umuleri alone from these places? 2hrs plus.
If you check the map or know the road, it is not straight forward but merry go round through the most chaotic place and insecure jungles in Anambra

pandax:
Owerri Airport is almost midway between Owerri and Aba, and cannot compete for any Anambra passengers. Asaba Airport with the 2nd Niger Bridge will compete for Nnewi, Ihiala, Uli, Ozubulu, Okija etc passengers. To forestall severe competition for some Anambra South Passengers, Anambra State government should build a clover-leaf flyover at the junction of Airport Road at Enugu-Onitsha Expressway and extend a dual carriage Road southwards, perpendicular to Enugu-Onitsha expressway cutting Oyi, Idemmili, through Nnewi and will burst out on Onitsha-Owerri Road around Okija/Ozubulu with another clover-leaf flyover

I expect the next governor to construct this import road. It will equally serve as Ontisha Southern bye pass and we should find a way to link northwards to the Aguleri-Idah-Ajaokuta Road

All the things you just said is fairly tales. We are talking about reality.
Nobody from Anambra South will risk the stress of Upper Iweka alone for one bush Airport in far away Umuleri.
Nobody from Oba, Obosi, Nkpor or Onitsha will start doing merry go round to use a bush Airport.
Lets be realistic.
We've got the airport now is the time to be realistic. The Airport is for less than 20 percent of people in the state

Mechionu nsi. From umueri to the nearest kogi community is over 2hrs drive, use your Google map to cure your illiteracy and ignorance.

Anambra international airport is centrally located to serve Anambra people. Check it out in Google maps

Akụkọ.
Let me ask you a few questions
1) if you are living in Obosi, Onitsha or Oba, which airport will you use? Umueri or Asaba.
2) If you are living in Ihembosi, Okija, Ihiala or Uli, would think of leaving Owerri Road to enter the jungles of Upper Iweka then struggle to get to one Bush like that in Umuleri instead of Owerri? A journey that coming back with your side mirror is not guaranteed.
That is if agbero did not design your face with slaps. Plus the hold up at Mgbuka and obodo ukwu.
Minus the hold ups, you are already in Owerri before the person that left for Upper Iweka arrives at Upper Iweka and that is not even close to the Airport

This is why it is annoying discussing with outsiders. Onitsha-Enugu expressway links Onitsha-Owerri road at Upper Iweka interchange, from there you will proceed to Anambra south. From Awka via Onitsha-Awka-Enugu expressway through Amawbia you will also proceed to Anambra south as well. There are other numerous roads like that.

You now see how stupid you sound.
Now tell me the distance from Ihembosi to Upper Iweka talkless of Ihiala and Uli?
That is moving away FROM Anambra South in a lengthy journey. Then faced with Upper Iweka riots. Yes Riot because that place is a war zone.
Oga you think those from the South are fools or what. Instead of taking a comfortable drive to Owerri through the Owerri road in front of their house , one will waste precious time and mental health to go through the jungles of Upper Iweka to do what exactly?
To show support for the Kogi Airport

Nwokem mechionu nsi. Do you know the distance from Abuja airport to the city centre? It is over an hour drive. Proper international airports are set outside the major cities to be able to get ample land space.

Anambra has developed proper international airport to serve Anambra people, so shut up

To serve Kogi people you mean.
If it was meant to serve Anambra people the Government would have put accessibility in mind instead of my paddy paddy Village

You are definitely an alien. Onitsha-Enugu expressway links Anambra south via Onitsha-Owerri road, Nkpor down to Aguata, it links Awka from where you proceed to Anambra southern part. It is now obvious why you outsiders are crying over this airport in Anambra, because for sure the local ones in your state are not gonna survive the emergence of Anambra international airport

I am not even sure you know Anambra at all.
Where do you think Owerri Road links to Enugu Expressway?
Nothing concerns the south with Enugu Expressway oga

I am a regular user of Aaaba airport, from Onitsha mainland like 3-3, federal housing, GRA, etc, to Asaba airport is more than 30mins without traffic, but from the same Onitsha mainland to Anambra international airport is about 15mins.

You went from Nkwelle to Asaba not Onitsha to Asaba.
Thank you

You are too dumb. Anambra international airport road links the Onitsha-Awka-Enugu expressway. That makes it's easier for travelers to reach on time. You obviously don't know what you are yapping about

See the airport road as it links Onitsha-Awka-Enugu expressway at Nteje. This picture was as at January.

Do you know the Distance from Ihembosi to Nteje Alone?
Oga stop lying to yourself. Any thing past Owerri road is like another side of the world for Anambra South if what they are looking for can be found in Owerri

You are too dumb. Anambra international airport road links the Onitsha-Awka-Enugu expressway. That makes it's easier for travelers to reach on time. You obviously don't know what you are yapping about

And how does Onitsha-enugu Expressway concern Anambra South?
You see your life?

imaxdocuments:
For you to mention that the airport is close to Kogi means you don't even know where umueri is located in the map.

From Onitsha to Asaba airport with all the traffic is about 30mins that's if you have travelled via aeroplane before. But from Onitsha to Umueri Iess than 20mins.

No Anambra indigene will leave an airport within his reach and Anambra then go through traffic to another state just to travel.


[s][/s]

There is a difference from the traffic of entering from leaving Onitsha.
Onitsha to Asaba Airport is 10-15 mins max. And I included the time to get to the gate

Stop spewing nonsense out of ignorance. Anambra international to Okija/Ihiala/Azia/Ihembosi/Uli axis is just 25-30mins via the expressway to the international airport road. Anambra international airport is the best for anyone living with Anambra, unlike going to other states with all the bad roads in those states and insecurity

Which Expressway?
My dear lie to strangers not me.
Wait a minute, you are telling me that travelling on the FG road to Owerri in max of 58 mins to use their Airport from Anambra South is more security threatening than moving into the bushes of communal clash thorn jungles of Aguleri and Umuleri. Oga take it easy with the lies

imaxdocuments:
Why not continue to use your village local Imo state airport and leave Anambra international airport out of your misery. Bragging right? Are you out of your mind? Is there any state in igbo land that needs airport more than Anambra?

Anambra international airport is centrally located to serve Anambra cities and rural areas. From Onitsha to the airport is 15mins, to Awka is 20mins and Nnewi 30min. Stop saying what you don't know has focus on your own state.

Anambra is developing a truly international airport that will be the international gateway to the eastern Nigeria

[s][/s]

You are big Bomblifool for bringing innocent Imo people into your madness.
I am not from Imo so stop that stupidity.
No matter the kind of lies you tell you can never change geography or make the Airport change from Kogi Airport to Anambra own.
The Airport is simply to serve Kogi people and to used for bragging rights by Ndị Anambra.
So you are telling me that someone from Onitsha will leave the Airport that he can see from Down fly over to start doing merry go round in the name of using the Kogi Airport?
For Nnewi, they have options due to the bad road towards owerri but all other South are best served at Owerri. Don't even argue that one. In fact, they will feel more at home at owerri than your Kogi Airport

OreMI22:
You are so pained by Anambra international airport. Even if you change your moniker a hundred times, your empty vile-filled venom against Anambra people betray you all the time. If you know anything about aviation, you would know that airlines go where there are large volume demand and adequate facilities. There are so many airports in Nigeria today that don't even get a single flight in a month! So it's not just about the presence of an airport somewhere, a lot more goes into it to be utilized and useful!

Anambra international airport is waaay closer to Ihiala than Owerri airport which is located halfway towards Aba! You probably not from Anambra so you would never have driven from Ihiala to Onitsha and then 2 hours to cross the bridge to Asaba. You would understand the suffering associated with going to Asaba.

With the three access roads and to the international airport, especially the link from Nsugbe, the airport is closer to Onitsha residents than Asaba. Again, nobody in Awka will drive to Enugu to board a flight because this airport is closer than Enugu.

Why are you so pained that Anambra built an airport for its own citizens to develop its economy? While all these states mocking Anambra people all these years about not having an airport are so angry now because they depend on Anambra people to drive traffic in their own airport?

I mentioned that I read where some Kogi people were asking for commencement of the Ajaokuta - Idah - Aguleri to Onitsha road. That road was planned even before this airport because it is supposed to shorten the distance to Abuja drastically. However, even without that road, Anambra cities alone will keep this airport busy.

Not to mention that it has superior aviation facilities and runway length than any airport in the southeast. Including the fact that it is the only airport in the southeast that can land planes at night and has CAT 2 ILS. Unlike a southeast airport where common water used in flushing toilets is a huge problem! Anambra international airport has an abundant water supply of its own and enough for even fire-fighting emergencies! I recall the Sosoliso plane crash where parents watched their kids roast to death more than 2 hours after the crash because there was not even a single fire truck with water at the airport! Obiano is making sure such irresponsible waste of human life does not occur at the Anambra Intl. airport. Thus, he is spending the money for not just a proper adequate water supply system, but 3 brand new Crash tender state-of-the-art Fire vehicles! Obiano is bringing the best global aviation standards to an airport in the southeast and you should be happy about that if you were not a night owl. We should be proud and happy that we have at least one international standard airport in southeastern Nigeria with facilities comparable to international airports found elsewhere in the world.

No doubt the airport is the future of the region and you know it. That is why you are so pained, but it will not change the imposing credentials and world-class facilities being gradually installed at the airport.

Change which moniker?
You think I have time for stupidity.
The Airport is simply what it is, which is bragging right and my dear Atulu, Ihiala to Onitsha is 25 mins max and from Onitsha to Asaba is roughly 7 mins on a considerable day.
The hold up while going out of Onitsha is lesser than coming in.
Dont think you are engaging those hating you Kogi Airport.
The Airport just have Anambra to the name but in reality, we all know that it is for Kogi people

moppie123:
Honestly this is very unnecessary. If you know Owerri airport as u claim, then you will see why this your analysis is flawed. Owerri airport is about 35 mins from Owerri and for someone to get to Owerri airport from Anambra, it would take double that time which is anything from 70 mins and above.

Umuelri from the closest point of Okija/Ihiala/Azia/Ihembosi/Uli axis is nothing less than 2hrs, so what are you saying?
Plus the Bush path road, you will take.
My brother safety and time first.

Rocksvibes234:
I can never think you,

This shows you are so pained about This Airport, but it doesn't stop anything

Pained about which Airport? Atulu
The Airport is just for our bragging right, nothing more.
Now that it has become a reality, we can now speak like reasonable people.
The only gain, people like us from the South sen. Zone will get from it is the Cargo aspect. As for flight, Owerri serves us better.
Those in Central, will prefer Asaba which is 30 mins at most from their Houses.
Oga paddy paddy no dey for business oh

But here one is afraid that the other might be richer and wealthier if they let go

Exactly.
Typical Black Slave syndrome.
They even convinced themselves that they are the ones holding the others freedom. Shameless fools that can't see that we are all in a British experiment

Exponential101:
If you are not a lunatic u read the article above, read how Indonesia n Malaysia resolved to go their separate way without rancor but in your exceedingly foolish nature you are still insulting those you should reach out to n dialogue over your freedom.

Sir it is not a curse but you are doomed till eternity if you can read this article n at the end the only rubbish u can vomit is insult. If just 40 % of your tribe reason the way u do after reading what is posted then your entire tribe is doomed beyond redemption.

You just proved my point.
NIGERIANS are naturally dumb. Dialogue with who about my freedom?
Oga unlike you lots in Nigeria, we Ndigbo know our problem. We know who caused the problem and we are knocking at his door not our fellow inmates.
Yes inmates because you lots that feel like you are the ones holding imaginary group down are the most foolish set of humanoids that ever existed.
You are in the same mess or worse but you want and somehow manage to convince yourselves that you are the oppressors and are Shamelessly living the lie.
The person holding us in Nigeria is Britain that is why we are protesting in front of the White Hall day in day out. We are not protesting on the streets of Abuja or Lagos because we know that none of them hold the key but are actually our fellow inmates but unlike us, they love their chains probably because they have convinced themselves that they are worth nothing outside the Shameless comfort of the British Zoo called Nigeria.
They rely on the Zoo keeper (Britain) for everything and are scared to take the leap like Ndigbo

Reasonable people separated without fight but Black Shameless Africans want to tear themselves apart before allowing one person to go. On top of a contraption created by one white idiot from Scotland oh without any plan for viability or progress of the new contraption but using the excess money from South to subsidise or financially support the very poor North.
Afonjas and Aboki people can't just use their brain and allow Ndigbo to go peacefully then continue their romance without disturbance.
They don't know that we prepared for madness. If they want madness before we leave then we will convert the Zoo to a psychiatric hospital
In Freedom we stand.
All Hail Biafra

OreMI22:
I heard the Igalas are also seriously pushing for the award of the Idah - Aguleri federal road which the FG has been foot-dragging for a long time. A distance of about just 85KM!
When that road is completed, Idah would be only a 45 minute - 1-hour drive from this airport. Which would truly make accessing Idah and other parts of the Igala nation within just 1 hour from Lagos, Abuja, or other parts of the world through this airport.

With the completion of Idah- Aguleri road, in fact, this airport would be more accessible for someone living in Idah than someone living in Ihiala! This would be a huge game-changer and a massive investment boost for the Igala nation.

In the interim, i just want to say the main dual-carriage airport road is promising to be the best stretch of road in Anambra state. I am hoping that they will complete it with trees planted in the median and street lights. So that it commands the needed powerful aura needed in international entrace ways where a first time visitor makes their first impression of a country upon arrival and driving on such pleasant road.

You people make me laugh when you analyse things.
Na only person wey no sabi road for Ihiala, Okija and Uli that will waste precious time to Use Anambra Airport when within 50 mins he/she is at Owerri Airport or almost the same min, he/she is at Asaba.
Forget all the support we gave the governor. In reality, the Airport is for Awka, Aguleri, other Anambra North and Kogi people. Even some parts of the North will be best served at Enugu when you consider the time it will take to move inside Umuleri.
South and Central will either use Owerri and Asaba respectively than waste precious time travelling to Umuleri
Time is money
