Lol
Just imagine onye abakaleke determining what's local and what's not. Naming a worldclass intellectual life Okadigbo after a project in ebonyi is a favour and uplifting for you local illiterate ebonyi people. Go and read the profile of Okadigbo to understand his class

we wish it was Buhari it was named after and not Okadigbo a local champion

Rayzoom:
You're a self hater! But buhari international airport or Akanu Ibiam sounds intentional? You're really sick

Okadigbo was not known nationally but Buhari was known nationally. A one time head of state and two time elected President of whole Nigeria.

IamANigerianMan:
You have started again, has American president come here for medication? stop comparing your nonsense with America

Nigeria is a capitalist country like America, governments don’t own industries or refineries or cement factory or chicken farm.

Same way we all condemned Government establishing farm for fulani herdsmen which should be a private venture driven venture.

Government should only make policies and have civil servants.

We have plenty billionaires, let them stop building hotel and build refinery.

Rayzoom:
I guess buhari built the airport? Can you kindly tell me what buhari did for Ebonyi people that ain your love for the airport being named after him, the airport is Chuba Okadigbo international airport, live with it you self hater.

Chuba okadigbo international airport sounds very local

you didn’t hear Buhari implemented the full repayment of N36 Billion used to build Chuba Okadigbo Airport by Ebonyi state Government ?

IamANigerianMan:
Continue to defend ineptive and nonsense , what does it cost government to build ten modular refineries before removed the so call subsdy if it exist.

does government build refinery? Is any refinery in America govt owned?

Tinubu is a maggot


Removing fuel subsidy isn’t a bad idea but you ought to make plans and provisions before that

Them swear you in you just carry pampers for nyash to announce subsidy removal without improving electricity and waiting on una dangote to dispatch enough petroleum

Now fuel here is N800 this morning with long queue

Almost 80% of fuel stations don close just to hoard fuel and sell at higher prices

I wish fuel can hit 5k w liter so that APC will join us and suffer it together

Thank God there’s no special filling station for APC supporters

Barely 4hrs to your swear in Nigerians don dey suffer

See plenty pedestrians on the road waiting on bus and keke to go work

Stupid cocaine ambassador

will you seriously keep lamenting till the next 8years?

E far o

Stoplying:
The name of the language is Edo, not "Bini". Benin empire had many languages, the one which the Oba speaks is called Edo, it is the one spoken in Benin city which is the royal city: where the king lives !
"Bini" is not an African word.

okay so people who are from Edo state speak Edo

Two Captains can't be in one ship.
You and I know supporters will start hailing him and that might "steal" the purpose of the show.
I guess his PR men foresaw this and advised him to send Datti

story

Stoplying:
Counterexamples:
1) Charles de Gaulle airport
2) JFK airport

You haven't travelled enough to know what you are talking about.

literally all the airports in USA are named after human beings

NwekereNdokl:
Umahi has been embarrassed after he named the useless airport Buhari airport.
Apart those two things what other thing do you have in ebonyi? Chuka Okadigbo airport and that glorified secondary school called teaching hospital.

Mumu it’s Chuba Okadigbo international airport not Chuka Okadigbo

Stoplying:
Thanks bro, I don't know if he's lying or not, it doesn't really matter to me, he just lacks knowledge and etiquette, so I help. If you don't mind, I would like to elaborate on the difference between "Edo" and "Edo-state":

Two different things:
1) being Edo
2) being from Edo-state

It is strange that Nigerians seem to equate both, they don't realize that Edo-state was created in the 1990's whereas "being Edo" can be witnessed in documents such as the gazette of the Olu monarchy which dates to the 70's.

Edo-state got its name from Edo which already had a meaning: it is the name of the people of Benin empire (irrespective of location) and it is the name of the Oba's language.

Take care

name of Oba’s language? I thought Oba speaks Bini and not Edo

Firstorderwizard:
Nope, he is not supposed to attend.
It's good Datti represented him

why is he not supposed to attend?

Racoon:
Same fuel subsidy they have repeatedly called a fraud and have removed many times? The zombies that hid because of Buhari's 8 years of disastrous government are back again to hail and over hype another disaster

guy, stop this your idea of repeatedly reminding politicians when they were against a policy and are now supporting it.

It reeks of your immaturity about politics.

Even in your life, do you still say I love you to the girl you used to have an affection for before?

Mindsets change, ideologies change, I have also changed.

NwekereNdokl:
Ibiam nwa abakaleke I am saying that ebonyi people are slaves to Anambra people

fool

Stoplying:
1)It is strange to talk about "same lineage" while it is just as simple to say that that is his grand father.
2)there is no such thing as former Oba of Benin, there is just Oba of Benin, as the father joins his ancestors, the first son takes his place. There is previous Oba of Benin, not former.
3)where did I say you were a yoruba ?
4) Stop claiming ethnicity in a faceless forum, It is pointless and stupid, there is no way to verify your claim.
5) you said "Akenzua", I don't know many Edos who would say "Akenzua" without preceding by "Oba"
6) you definitely lack knowledge on history and could learn a lot from me.
7) you lack the culture and the knowledge. It doesn't mean you are not Edo, it only means you have things to learn.
8 ) you also said "Ewuare", it seems you love to disrespect Benin culture or you are really that ignorant?
When referring to the king of England, do you say "Charles" or "king Charles" ? When referring to the pope, do you say "Francis" or "pope Francis" ? The disrespect or total ignorance is why I don't like you. This same guy wants to claim he's an Edo...😂
9) even commoners are not referred to with just their names, their names are preceded by "Mr" or "doctor" or "sir", you came here to hate and at the same time you want to claim affiliation with those you hate... You are a schizophrenic person.

he’s lying. He’s not from Edo

NwekereNdokl:
Ibiam nwa abakaleke. It is because ebonyi is a slave camp of Anambra people, you should have known that by now. Every federal government investment are all named after Anambra people. Ask yourself why

Apart from Alex Ekwueme Federal Teaching Hospital and Chuba Wilberforce Okadigbo International Airport Ebonyi which other one?

Mtchew

get out. Is Enugu airport not named after an Ebonyi man?

seunmsg:
Amaechi has officially joined Labour Party after losing out in Rivers state. Best of luck to him in his news party.

he will contest for senate in rivers east under labor party in 2027

Obi didn’t attend the inauguration of the only Labor Party Governor ?

Bad reps from him.

Amaechi should collect Senate ticket under Labor in next Rivers general election.

Why ?

PH to Maiduguri eastern corridor? No
Lagos to calabar rail?? No

Lagos to abuja rail ?

No?


And why didn’t he build 2nd niger bridge


Why didnt he renovate Enugu airport biko

I like the native

Let’s do away with suits in this country

Mexyz:
Akenzua is not the current Oba of Benin, though they are from the same lineage but Akenzua was a former Oba of Benin.

the Throne is well respected more than Ooni of Ife.

Otherwise he won’t be the Only King to have an airport named after him

SE should move on

Very smart.

Read history no! Who Okadigbo? How did he die? What did he bring to our democracy and Nigeria as a whole? What is his relationship with Buhari that Buhari had to personally remove his name and replace it Okadigbo? Read! Stop being a fool!

please educate me what Okadigbo brought to our democracy ?

richmond500:
President Bola Tinubu PBT.

PBAT

He swore as Bola Ahmed Tinubu not Bola Tinubu

So it is PBAT

slawomir:
Damnnn niggar

Tinubu administration is about to kick off in a bad note
Imagine federal ministry departments and agencies have not been payed may salary

Before they usually gets thier salary Before 28 of every month

It is about to get worse for Nigerians

The truth and happy thing about Tinubu's administration is am not gonna pity anyone anymore since have realised that the masses are the problem of Nigeria
A south African friend told me that if tinubu gets more than hundred vote in this election then it means Nigerians are sick and the tribalism hidden in us is out openly

stop spamming this everywhere

Mrfeel:
That's why I said, buhari broke the Azikiwe curse on chuba okadigbo

thats good

Mrfeel:
Dr nnamdi Azikiwe cursed chuba okadigbo


You will die unsung for the futility of abusing old age.

In the end, he got named after an International Airport

Stanweezy:
Buhari's running mate in 2003 presidential election, sentiment is behind the naming

He is obviously honouring his first running mate. They must have had a very very very good friendship for him to honour him post-humously with an airport.

maestroferddi:
Little mind supporting APC...

Enugu International Airport is named after Francis Akanu Ibiam from Ebonyi State...

Igbo unity should be sacrosanct...

because Akanu Ibiam contributed to Eastern Region as Governor General with HeadQuarters in Enugu.

So how did Okadigbo contribute to Ebonyi?
