Ok
Our military men wouldn't see it as a priority to look for the kidnappers but they are all over south east looking for ESN men to fight with. In the voice of the COD "defend yourself against the killer herdsmen, don't be a coward. Because the present government is insensitive to your plight.

COMPAQ:


I don't understand this craze for airports in the East. There are existing long standing airports in Enugu, Benin, Owerri, Uyo, PH, Calabar and Asaba.

But now Anambra, Ebonyi and Bayelsa are building. Na Abia remain to build.

i would not even have an issue if they would be self sustaining, but unfortunately most of them will become a drain pipe to the state government, meaning less money for education, health, roads and other infrastructure.

I dare any state government building an airport to make it self sustaining. i.e the staff and maintenance of the airport will be paid solely from the revenues of that airport and let's see how many will survive.
Exactly my point

It’s ignorance and lack of exposure that’s dealing with you.

There’s nothing wrong with all the states in Nigeria having an airport.

So you’re saying if I have a meeting in Abakaliki and need to return immediately, then I should stop at Enugu Airport and go to Abakaliki by road?
SMH!!!
How many people will fly through the airport? How do you expect the govt to maintain the airport considering the fact that it is likely to experience low patronage and thereby can't generate ample income.

Ignore that fuul.
Where in this world are granite and lead transported by air?
How is the airline going to break even?
If rail is not available then the other option is by road via trucks or waterways.
Cargo flights are meant for electronics, medical supplies, food and occassionally animals like cows,luxury cars,military equipments, goods and merchandise but never granite or such.
My point exactly.

Cargo for its Agricultural and mining sector .lots of agribusiness and mining going on.from lead to granite and zinc,in real commercial amounts . I know an Anambra friend that transports large quantities of lead from Ebonyi to his factory in ogun state using trailers. You need to get close to know what is happening. Most granite used in rivers ,Abia, Enugu and cross river are from Ebonyi. There is no atom of exaggeration here ,u can check it out with numerous Agricultural produce
How about transporting those goods by rail?

Everyone is using asaba airport thats what I'm saying, no need for that Anambra airport ,Asaba is just across the head Bridge and just 30mins away
There is need for a closer airport to the business me in the commercial city and the Umueri international cargo airport is the solution.

If u are not stupid u would know some people in benue use Enugu airport bc is closer to them than markudi, I didn't know u were such an illiterate to know boundary an distance of towns,maybe I should educate u better,ogoja and ikom th3 northern Cross River are very much closer to Ebonyi than calabar which is atleast 6 hrs from them,.same way some parts of benue are closer and will use it for their agricultural export ,i have to teach u like a pupil
The Ikom people that I know are farmers and timber operators. So how do you expect them to transport their agricultural products through your airport when they can barely afford that and prefer the usual affordable means of land transportation?

Stupid boy is it only Anambra that does trade in Anambra, come to 33 in onitsha anytime u can book let me take u round IMO,Ebonyi and Enugu business men doing so well there that don't need the stupid aiport by that clown .Besides Ebonyi is building cargo airport for its agricultural economy to export,
So Anambra should use Asaba airport across the bridge
The Ebonyi business men in Onitsha, do they book flight to their state whenever they are traveling back or why are you so dumb?

Edoziesmart:

Baba, I still support the man you quoted. No need for Ebonyi State to build her airport while Enugu is closer. Will they recover the money they used in building it in this generation? Because Ebonyi has a low population judging from abakaliki I had visited often.

Even the motor transport conveying passenger from another state in Nigeria to Ebonyi state is very hard they see passenger that occupied the vehicle seats. That's to show you very few people travel to or from Ebonyi state to another state in a day.
Umahi should have spent the money on education and other social amenities than this.

Ebonyi is just one of the least populated states in Nigeria just like Bayelsa, Kebbi, Zamfara, etc that has a very low number of visitors daily.
God bless you.

No, the present Ebonyi does not waste resources, if you were keen enough while watching the video, you'd have noticed there were no foreign contractors on the scene, unlike other states that pays huge amounts to foreign coys to build roads and other basic infrastructures that Nigerians can do even better, at the fraction of the price.

Well, I love the way you presented your points maturely. Good luck to Ebonyi and to Engr Dave.

You are pained that Umahi is fast on track to deliver one of the best airport in the country! Perhaps, you already know that your alcohol guzzling governor is no match in quality delivery, hence your anger. cheesy
Anger? No not at all but I am more concern because that will amount to waste of resource since the airport may witness low patronage.

You're still getting foolish,bc u are shortsighted , how many people where living in enugu or owerri when the airports there were created most u know airports attracts investments,besides it will be used not only by Ebonyi people but northen cross River and Benue people who are closer to Ebonyi than their respective states,
So Cross River residents will leave the airport in their state that is much standard and start using the one in your state? You see that you have shallow reasoning.

What your empty skull fails to tell you is that Anambra as a state needs an airport compare to Ebonyi considering the number of business tycoons in the state so it is better to build an airport closer to the commercial city of Onitsha for those business men. Even the airport in Anambra state is a Cargo airport.
How do expect them to make profit from the airport when it start functioning considering the fact that it is likely to witness low patronage?

By right, all states in Nigeria should have an airport.
How many people in Ebonyi state flies by air on a regular basis? Instead of wasting money to build an airport that won't generate any income to the state why not use the money for something else that will benefit the state and be using the Enugu airport since it is closer.

abnot:

FG is broke cannot carry everything . FAAN makes profit from only three airports (Lagos , abuja and port harcourt). The surplus from these airports is what is used to fund other airports under FAAN. This is one of the reasons civil servants in FAAN are fighting the minister Sirika because he wants to concession the terminal buildings in these three airports along with Kano. Once that happens they will no longer get free money from lagos, abuja and port harcourt airports and they have not been able to make any of these airports viable. Nigeria suffers from its greedy citizens who pressure their governors into embarking in some unsustainable projects.

Within the south east every state wants to have its airport as opposed to adopting that of enugu as the gateway airport to the southeast. Why spend billions on an airport that will only see one or two aircrafts land daily ? The bayelsa government did the same thing spending billions on an airport project. Till today there is no commercial flight operation there.
