Osubi Airport – Remains Osubi Airport period. we don't need a change of its name. it is not a Federal Airport so mind your Business.
even if it is to be named don't we have prominent nationalist from delta State (Micheal Ibru, Okotie Eboh, Alfred Rewani, Dennis Osadebe, etc. why not name it after them. Why bring someone from Rivers state. River state already have an Airport so name it after him if at all. But we don't want it renamed especially not by you if at all it should be renamed.

It's not difficult, all you need to do is, when they put the signboard there, go and remove it.

Nonsense....Port Harcourt was part of old Western region which was headed by Obafemi Awolowo. So renaming the airport after him is still in order. And besides Federal Institutions can be named after anybody.
stop lying. Port harcourt was never part of old Western region. Only edo and delta were.
Though I agree that FG has right to name the airport after anyone

They are reforming aviation sector by renaming airports. grin

The least intelligent among us are the ones ruling us. Shame on them.
Unfortunately so.

It is the typical British Empire playbook for their colonies:
Give the most important jobs to the least qualified people, and then sit and watch everything crumble and fight amongst themselves.

[quote author=Lutherblaq post=124046180]Tinubu should face the main country's problem, not some lamba he is showing us right now...

Hunger is know the order of the day in this country.. So he should face that and stop all this helter skelter things sad[Is it Tinubu that brought the hardship to Nigeria? After all the problem you claimed to have with this economy is the same economy that brought favour to many people that doesn't attach their success to any man.

The Maiduguri Airport was renamed after the immediate past President Muhammadu Buhari

Haaaa... Badluck.. If you love your life, no board plane for here oo.



and the Port Harcourt Airport after the late nationalist Obafemi Awolowo,

As Omo Odua living in PH, this should have been cool but it's not just right. It should have been renamed after a SS legend. This one na NO NO NO. Make haters no use this opportunity rubbish Baba Awo.



while the Nasarawa Airport immortalised the late founder of the Sokoto Caliphate, Usman Dan Fodio.

This is an insult to the conquered people of Nasarawa especially the Christians there. Not sensitive at all.

@Italicized So it is cool to name Lagos airport after Murtala Mohammed and Abuja airport after Nnamdi Azikwe abi

That is the rationale behind the renaming smiley

Why naming Port Harcourt airport Obafemi Owolowo?

Chai, that's a big slap in the face to Igbos / Rivers faces.

Starting from where bubu stopped.






This is called a Balablu!

Why name Abuja airport after Nnamdi Azikwe

Re: Tinubu Renames Airports After Buhari, Usman Dan Fodio, Awolowo, Others by ehikwe22: 2:41pm On Jun 26, 2023
Usman Dan Fodio was a terrorist and plays the highest role in our present predicament. Does it mean Tinubu is not only a drug baron and kleptomaniac but also a jihadist?

You're right....but still doesn't matter. If Lagos Airport can be named after Muritala Muhammed and Abuja named after Nnamdi Azikiwe then there's no big deal naming Port Harcourt airport after Awolowo. Wailers can continue to wail tongue

THE PRESIDENT NAMED OTHER AIRPORT AFTER THE LEADERS FROM THAT REGION,
SO THE PRESIDENT SHOULD NAME P.H AIRPORT AFTER A LEADER FROM THAT REGION.

I am an Obidient.

But so far the leadership Tinubu is showing in this few days in office is very impressive.

He is showing a leadership of someone who is committed and believes in building Nigeria back to her lost glory.

He seems to be looking beyond Yoruba, Ibo or Hausa and religion in his rebuilding journey.

So far so good he is showing an exceptional leadership style beyond what we all imagined.

But he should make sure he legitimize his Presidency through the ongoing PEPT, because Mahmoud spoilt things.

But why renaming Nasarawa Airport after the caliphate..? Nasarawa are 60% Christian state..

Also, does it mean that the people of South South has no Icon that Port Harcourt Airport can be named after..? Awolowo has other National monuments been named after him.. GEJ should have been the one in place of Awolowo..

98% of our revenue goes into debt servicing, if Tinubu did not take the bold step of removing subsidy and floating the naira to curb fx round tripping, in 5yrs you may have to be sold as a slave to an Arab for 50,000naira inorder to feed your family.

Effect of subsidy removal,sir.
Without its removal,Nigeria will be totally down in a few years.Maybe you will want to relocate to even Zimbabwe grin
Only a president who wants goodness and prosperity for Nigerians will remove it and stick with it but he must have ideas to grow our economy very fast to alleviate the anticipated hardship.
It is a very tough division that can only be done by a good manager of the state.
This is where Tinubu comes in.
We will feel the hard result just for a few weeks and things will begin to take positive shapes.

It doesn't have to be named after someone from the South-South. Osubi Airport is already named after Admiral Diete-Spiff and Benin Airport is already named after Oba Akenzua. There are many facilities in the South-South that are named after people from other parts of Nigeria, just as there are facilities in other parts of Nigeria that are named after people from the South-South.


Note my complaint

Awolowo is not bad but there are enough institutions in the SouthWest to name after him since he made this one look like the names should be after a great man from the region
