The entry of Anambra international airport has changed the aviation game in Nigeria particularly the southeast Nigeria. The airport has continued to record high volume of passenger traffic.

Just yesterday, about 15 aircrafts landed at the airport. This is something you can only see in high aviation traffic areas like Lagos and Abuja.

In a little while from now, it is projected that this airport will rank only after Lagos and Abuja international airports in passenger traffic.

not true

Do bullion van carry up to N250M at a go, this was the exact amount Peter Peter Obi was caught with in Lagos that he claim was contract money he paid to a contractor in cash.

Can Tinubu claim he paid a contractor cash for Lekki link bridge or can Buhari claim he paid cash to the Chinese fixing out rail or airport. If Igbos will call them fraudster for that why are they not calling the crookered Peter Peter Obi a criminal. Note the money was not caught with him in Anambra but in Lagos.

The truth is simple Peter Peter Obi is a diehard criminal.

Fesotech first flight to depart from lagos to Anambra today, the 18th day of december is United nigeria. It will take off by 10am and land in anambra at 11am while air peace will take off by 11am and land in anambra at 12pm anatgepost=108594845:

Bros,

The airport has been completed and is ready for commercial service. How "completed was PH airport or Enugu airport when they were opened for commercial use? An airport is ready when the critical elements of an airport are ready.. Which are;
1. Runway,
2. Control Tower
3. Fire & Safety Department
4. Emergency Clinic
5. Perimeter fencing
6. Terminal building and basic utilities as toilets, seats, lighting, carousels.

To mention landscaping and avio bridges, escalators, wall interior decorations, internal shops or even car parks which aren't even present in many so-called International airports in Nigeria as criteria to decide an airport is ready is ludicrous.

By the way, Chicago's O'Hare International airport is currently working on trains that transport people between its terminals. Currently, you have to exit one terminal and enter a bus shuttle to get to the next terminal. So in your criteria, Chicago airport is not ready to receive commercial flights because it currently has a huge construction project there building underground trains to link its terminal buildings?

I am actually very happy that they are not showing any more activities at the airport. Those people that shut down the airport should go there and verify things instead of gleaming on social media gossip sites and nairaland to justify their illegal closure of the airport. I wish the state will reinstate their no-pictures order so that mischief-makers will stop posting anything about the airport on social media to mislead people and justify the unjustifiable closure.

The airport has been commissioned on 30th of November. Commercial activity was supposed to kick-off the same day but FG cancelled every all Airpeace flight that was suppose to take off and land in Anambra that day; leaving thousand of passengers stranded and disappointed.

Anambra is arguably the most important state in Nigeria. Even FG knows Anambra will retire Lagos if a standard Seaport is built in the state. This is why they are scared of building one in the state, and are frustrating every plane to commence full commercial flight operation at Anambra International Cargo and Passenger Airport....

Jakumo:
This is a minor point, but the pictures published here show two different runways, and NOT opposite ends of the same runway. By ICAO convention, Runway 09 faces due east, while Runway 27 faces due west.

It is not possible for one end of the same runway to be designated as 09, and the other as 24. The runway heading at both ends of the same runway always face compass directions that differ from each other by exactly180 degrees.

Jakumo:
You go see say dem go change am back to 09 and 27, namely East Facing and West Facing ends of the same runway.

After dem go flog the painter when go mistake write 09 and 24. Na mistake. Runway no dey bend corner. Na straight line kaka-raka.

AmericanQuarter:
Are you sure this is not also another brand of Zeigler Z6?

ANSMEDIA:
Anambra international airport terminal lighting getting done

ARROBA:
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?

IDENNAA:
You wrote on a Yoruba thread you were from Imo. I saw it and I have no reason to lie; which puts your constant criticisms of Obiano's administration and mockery of his projects in question ,as whether your concerns are truly genuine.

You are not from Anambra but you are alwsys here to critisize and condenm everything we do. Wetin be ya own sef ?
