•Says It Will Boost Economic Growth

Ondo State Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, on Monday welcomed a new Airline, Green Africa Airways, into the state as it made its first Lagos-Akure commercial flight.

Governor Akeredolu welcomed the new Airline to the state at the Akure Airport alongside his Deputy, Hon. Lucky Aiyedatiwa; members of the House of Assembly led by the Deputy Speaker, Rt. Hon. Samuel Aderoboye; Secretary to the State Government, Princess Oladunni Odu, and other members of the State Executive Council among other dignitaries.

Arakunrin Akeredolu expressed delight at the commencement of the Airline operations in the sunshine state, stressing that it will boost the economy growth of the state.

The Governor said with the new airline, the state now has access to three airlines with different routes from Akure to Lagos and Abuja.

He said: "We are looking at increasing accessibility of the air flight. Now we have three and it is a thing of joy. We welcome you with open arms.


“As you know, air transportation is one of the most lucrative businesses but we know your limitations. Your services would assist in boasting the economic growth of our state.

“Your Services are needed at this time. We want our investors to feel safe while coming to Akure. When we started our investment drive, investors would drive from Lagos to Akure and spend five hours on the road while coming and same going back. They don’t ever come back again. But with this facility, in 45 minutes, you are here and another 45 minute you are back.”

While assuring of his administration’s commitment to more economic development, the Governor said the Airport terminal under construction will be completed before December.

He said investors will appreciate to come into the state with the accessibility to the airlines, adding that hospitality facilities are also coming up in the state with the Big Hotels that are under construction at various areas in the State capital.

Governor Akeredolu, who described the Green Africa Airline as a notable player in the aviation industry in the country, urged the Founder, Babawande Afolabi, to also fly the Akure-Abuja route.

In his remark, Afolabi said the goal of the airline is to make air travel accessible to everyone and contribute to the economic development of Ondo State.

“We do hope that we open Ondo State. We look forward to a great future,” He said.

Ondo State will soon get there by God's grace. For now let's celebrate this progress. This will generate revenue for the state and create conducive transportation means for investors. Before now, Ondo State doesn't enjoy any commercial airline but now we have 3. We are moving. We will get there.

I think that is subjective.

I have booked Air Peave twice but all got was failure by way of cancellations at the last minute.

Lovely one...by the way somebody said they are old aircrafts I don't think so..
Those are pessimistic souls that nothing in life can ever make them happy or have a little smile.
Hatred, bitterness and frustrations have taken over their lives.
Both online and offline, they are always bitter and sad.
They are always gloomy and sad in reading or seeing anything good and positive.

But the good thing is that : There is nothing we can do about it. wink cheesy

God bless Ondo State.
