ChineduAIaegbu: Not even a single Anambra Senator.. Tụfịakwa!!What are they doing and where went them?
[/s]
Anambra is a progressive state with a progressive minded people, and not your useless worthless backward shithole Imo state filled with clowns, no wonder supreme court appointed a governor for you animals. Tufiakwa
Chima, you are one of the most intelligent personalities in this forum. I like reading your posts, however long.
ChimaAdeoye: When the Chinese consortium pulled out of this project, I totally lost hope that it could ever be built. In fact, I opposed every idea of building it because judging from the mentality of the average southeast governor to do some type of low-quality project just to say they have built an "airport" and considering the paltry level of funding available to the southeast states, in relation to what will be required to build an international standard airport, I considered it a mission impossible. Yet, from what Obiano did at Agulu Lake hotel, the three Awka flyovers, multiple bridges, and completion of Onitsha mall etc, I knew there was something different about Obiano's capacity to deliver projects.
Alas! Obiano launched the airport in early 2020 and simply kept his work more or less unexposed to the media. Obiano was quoted as pleading with Alhaji Hadi Sirika to make space in his calendar to attend the test flight in April, 2021! He also told the Minister that he was at his office to seek other technical assistance, NCAA guidance and not to ask for money for the airport project! At that point, I thought this "airport" would be a tiny aerodrome of about 1.5 KM runway, with the ATC tower mounted on top of the tiny terminal building. However, two respected individuals in the aviation business; Femi Fani Kayode and Allen Onyema granted interviews where they both mentioned that the airport was indeed being built to true international quality and standard! I didn't know if I should believe them or not. However, since they went with the governor's entourage I chose to take their words with a grain of salt. They could just be trying to be "politically correct" by exaggerating what they saw.
In fact, I didn't even want to know what was going on there because I thought it would resemble the picture below of "what Obiano was expected to build". My first true expose was from two youtube videos from NedMedia and Ebo Media respectively. I was shocked that Obiano was indeed seriously building a 3.7 KM runway, had already completed a 300M by 200M tarmac, about to complete an 11 storey all-concrete- ATC tower, terminal building, ~750 car park, and many other facilities SIMULTANEOUSLY! It totally blew me away! How did he do it? More importantly, how come he didn't do a shoddy project like typical southeast governors would? Just to then turn around and claim they "saved" N1 billion naira after building a shameful airport. I was totally dumbfounded after watching those youtube videos. In fact, I got angry at my friends at Njenje Media for giving the airport somewhat bad press as though it was all a fluke and nothing was indeed happening. [/i]
Today, Obiano has clearly written his name in gold! Not just that he fulfilled a dream of an Anambra airport planned since 1982 during President Shehu Shagari's era (Onitsha airport), followed by Gov. Ezeife's Oba airport project in the 1990s. Obiano went the extra mile to make sure he built a truly world-standard international airport that can compete with similar facilities globally. He also insisted on the appropriate state-of-the-art navigational equipment, including ILS Cat 2 and runway lighting systems! Not to mention building its own water supply systems and state-of-the-art fire station for the airport. Obiano went the extra mile of building a new dual-carriage accessway with bridges in line with the tradition of linking international airports with dual carriage main access roads. Truly, if a future Anambra governor names this airport Chief Willie Obiano International Cargo/Passenger airport, it would be a deserving "Thank you" from Anambra people for not just achieving this lifelong aspiration at the highest truly -international standard, but for the numerous other achievements that Obiano achieved as a governor. Despite the harsh economic challenges during his tenure.
One final thing is that Obiano should remember that this project was promised with an "Airport City" to drive the new Anambra economy. This Airport city would definitely help create world-class modern areas where international companies could be attracted to the state to build their own offices because the entire area is well-planned. Similar to how Abuja was able to attract businesses from Lagos simply for being a well-planned purpose-built city. Obiano's economic and physical development planning team should get together and plan how they could partner with reputable and well-resourced private real-estate companies to gradually begin a phased development of the airport city. This will definitely attract a whole lot of aviation-based companies, hospitality global hotels brands to invest within the airport city. Thus boosting revenue and creating jobs. The beauty of it all is that the state does not need to invest its own funds in building this airport city if it could work out a good MOU agreement with private real-estate investors to do it.
You are on point bro. Don't mind those envious bitter people. Anambra is steadily moving forward and upward..
post=103723183: Those making arguments that air passengers going to Nnewi and environs will prefer Asaba or Owerri airport, the two ministers that was invited by Innoson for commissioning of his new vehicle plant at Nnewi and landed at new Anambra airport, has cleared the silly arguments
KosiGee: Obiano and Okorocha executed similar projects and we all know how it went down.he whole of that cast should be knocked down and redone. That’s poor quality work going on there.All you urchins singing like sparrows would swallow your words when you see the finished project. That work has many faults. knock that rubbish down and recast it.
Stop spewing nonsense, Obiano flyovers are still standing and in use, you can talk of Okorocha flyover that hasn't been used because of major cracks and defects.
KosiGee: I’m not an engineer but I can identify fault on a building or structure. I can see cracks, damps and other structural defects here. Pls we don’t want another Obiano bridge here. There was s something wrong here. Our engineers need to up their game. Not impressed with the quality of what I’m seeing here.
Obiano bridges are are beautiful and still standing. Pay more attention on your backward Enugu state and its governor that has failed woefully
ANSMEDIA: This is so cool and beautiful. The terminal building is getting set.
Wow..best and most beautiful international airport. Anambra international airport is the international gateway to the eastern Nigeria. E go dey pepper them.
What da fuc.k. you are totally correct brother. I have been saying the same thing here all along
The owner of this thread must adhere to mental assessment before one is registered in this forum, this is because of mentally deranged people like bossjamal..
GitmoAuditors: Cry cry..why are you still crying, illiterate that doesn't even know how to spell "shut"
Everyone knows you are a cursed frustrated mad dog but unfortunately for you, I know your antidote, that's why you kept crying
You parade over 100 monikers in this forum, some you use in liking your incoherent disjointed posts.
Bossjamal, your state is in ruins while your are here crying. Na me fit you wella
Bossjamal, only a fool like you with inferiority complex would leave his state simply because it is backward, and jumped and fixate on another state because of envy, frustration and bitterness. I spit on your big bald head
[s][/s]
Bossjamal is not just an illiterate but he is mentally unstable. Check all his posts, very disorganized.
OreMI22: Those who are close to the Governor should tell him to build a 4-5 star hotel within the Awka International Conference center (ICC) compound. The space at the right side of the compound can fit a hotel the size of Agulu Lake hotel which measures about 90 feet by 280 feet.
They can even go into partnership with a private establishment to build the right type and quality of hotel needed in that compound. The remaining land for the garden and car park will still be more than enough for the facility.
cjrane: Why ask for the last 6 months as if he had been in power for just 6 months? Are you the only person in Nigeria that does not know that Obiano has been in power for about 7 years now?
I still don't understand this question. Does every governor in Nigeria commission a project every 6 months? So if Obiano does not build and commission a new project every 6 months, then he has not performed? Or is this just for some type of mischief? I don't get this question.
cjrane: GBAM! Truly, Obiano has done what Napoleon could not. I don't even know where he got the money to execute this project! My state is oil-rich, yet it took us more than 12 years to build a standard airport with a smaller apron and shorter tower, and shorter runway!
As you mentioned, he surprised many (including me) by departing from the usual low-quality projects we have come to associate with southeast state governments. I was also pleasantly surprised that he went for a CAT 9 fire station, ILS systems, and CAT II navigational systems. Anambra is lucky to have someone who is determined to give them a standard facility. I think they should name the airport after him just to say Thank You for giving the state such a wonderful high quality aviation facility.
Nwanne you have totally destroyed that bitter envious clown. He is actually from Imo state, but he is very envious, bitter and angry that Anambra is progressing while his Imo state is in shambles with nothing to show.

ChineduAIaegbu: Still you can't mention one project he commissioned in 6months?

Desmond face your backward shithole failed Imo state. Anambra is a progressive state and far better than your useless Imo state, which is the reason most Imolites are running to Anambra for greener pasture. We don't need to prove anything to an envious bitter person like you when we all know that Anambra has thousands of projects both completed and ongoing to boast of. So get lost
globemoney01: Well said. Truly the greatest project embarked upon and completed by any SE governor in history. With this project ndi igbo will now start demanding world class capital intensive projects from governors. The era of igbos praising governors for building substandard roads is over
Why are you always here crying? Anambra is doing great as a state and one of the top 5 best states in Nigeria. We cannot say the same thing about your backward shithole Imo state. There's a reason why more than 2/3rd of Imo population are living in Anambra. Face your failed Imo state. Inugo
Yet another pile of rubbish from a night owl. You and your posts remain rejected.

PDP messed up. Who is Ozigbo in the first place? The only credential Ozigbo has is just being a hotel manager in Abuja. Maduka would have been their "best and first 11". Well APGA will still win anyway.
JohnBullMySon: It's clear to me now that PDP has no interest in Anambra development. Soludo all the way as well, Maduka should go and join APGA.
