Governor Alex Otti has reiterated that the proposed Abia Airport is primarily a federal government project, with the state government providing the necessary support to ensure its successful execution, ABN TV reports.

He clarified this during the December edition of the monthly media briefing tagged "Governor Alex Otti Speaks to Abians."

Addressing questions on the state’s involvement, Governor Otti explained that the project is not a joint venture where parties co-own the initiative and share responsibilities equally. Instead, the Abia State Government’s role is limited to facilitating and advising where needed to enhance the project.

“The airport is largely a federal project,” Otti said. “What we did was to intervene to say, ‘Instead of doing this, why don't you do this?’ And if you need us to contribute, we are happy to do so. But it does not mean that we own the project. No.”

The governor further disclosed that the primary difference between the federal government’s initial plan and the state’s input lies in the length of the runway, highlighting that Abia State’s suggestions aim to optimize the project for better outcomes.

Governor Otti assured Abians that the airport project is on course and will be completed as planned. “Rest assured that the project is going to take off and is going to be delivered,” he affirmed.

You talk as if you don't know the federal gov't can claim a project or resource through 'constitutional' means! The Owerri airport that Imo indigenes built, does it belong to them?

Poor quality education is affecting your reasoning, hence, your pride in ignorance.
He is talking about partnership.

No be same you and your fellow herds dey celebrate person private refinery as Tinubu efforts to reduce fuel import?

In a rush to claim educated una go just enter mushroom colleges of education and poly in that SW where half baked graduates are bred.
In my service year in jebu east lG of Ogun state, the grammar school where I served had no teacher who could comfortably answer WAEC questions to C-Level in the subjects they were teaching without using text books as aid

Wickedlywicked:
Una just like to dey defend rubbish. The unlettered mumu you’re defending like prime Sergio Ramos asked a typical mumutic question, asking who would fund a project that the governor unequivocally called a federal government project.
The Governor stated that his government is only supporting the project yet a dunce was still asking who would fund the project.
Also, who claimed the Dangote refinery was Tinubu’s effort to reduce fuel? People who praised Tinubu particularly praised him for making an enabling environment (the Lagos free trade corridor) available for the project because the place where it’s built was his vision birthed a long time ago. Una no Dey ever gree get sense however small it may be. Swallow your opinion bcus I don’t engage Osus. You’re ignored🤝

gsmphoneseller:
Governor Otti should just keep quite already.

The truth is that Yorubas are not happy with the good news coming out from Abia.

The Imo airport built by the then Imo state where even children in kindergarten of those days paid levies to build was taken by federal government. So let the same federal government build this one and take it too. Rubbish and ingredients.

Federal government builds all infrastructure in southwest Yoruba states after all.
