If am to believe you , this helipad will be the first constructed artefact that requires no maintenance!
A structure don't have to be electronic before it requires maintenance.
From your response , I think you view an helipad as just like plastering cement on an open field.
If that is the case then it shouldn't have cost more than 100k(that is on a high side).
I expect an administration that preaches/promises frugality to lead by example , not taking to an extravagant lifestyle.

The point is that the cost of maintenance of the helipad where it exists, is far lower than the cost of constantly fuelling the Presidential jumbo jet to fly to Katsina, and then fuelling the Presidents entire convoy to Daura from Katsina airport, and then bear the same cost for the return trip.

I repeat, a broom, mop, and replacement bulbs are all that are needed to maintain a helipad.

Why spamming d thread den. Pretend as if u re presently living in somalia.

How many Nigerians fly choppers to Daura and for what purpose? Is Daura a tourist destination? You people will go to any length to defend the Daura President. I'm not surprised anyways..... Afterall you people said even if you catch Buhari and Tinubu carting away money from CBN vaults, that you're ok with it.

Good luck with your CHANGE! As for me and my family we dont have a president till 2019.

Re: FG Builds Helipad For Buhari In Daura by Rawani: 7:48am
Building a helipad which will allow the President fly to Daura directly from the villa will be a cheaper option than using the Eagle One Presidential jet to first fly to Katsina and then moving the entire convoy by road to Daura, a trip that is repeated for his return as well.

[b]Let's keep in mind that the soil in Otueke is loamy, in contrast to the sandy Daura soil which would raise dust when landing that could disastrously block the pilots visibility. [/b]The construction cost of a helipad is about N2 million.

This is a 'clueful' decision which is highly efficient, especially as it significantly reduces the cost of governance.

At least PDP tried to lie any time they cheated us, they didn't try this, "YOU ARE STUP!D SO BELIEVE WHAT I'M SAYING" routine. The dust in daura will affect pilot's visibility? grin grin

Don't be ignorant. Its called a 'Brownout'.

In aviation, a brownout (or brown-out) is an in-flight visibility restriction due to dust or sand in the air.[1] In a brownout, the pilot cannot see nearby objects which provide the outside visual references necessary to control the aircraft near the ground.[2] This can cause spatial disorientation and loss of situational awareness leading to an accident.[3] Pilots have compared landing during brownouts to parallel parking an automobile with one's eyes closed.[4]

The brownout phenomenon causes accidents during helicopter landing and take-off operations in arid desert terrain. Intense, blinding dust clouds stirred up by the helicopter rotor downwash during near-ground flight causes significant flight safety risks from aircraft and ground obstacle collisions, and dynamic rollover due to sloped and uneven terrain.[5] Brownouts have claimed more helicopters in recent military operations than all other threats combined.[6]

There are several factors which affect the probability and severity of brownout:[6]

rotor disk loading
rotor configuration
soil composition
wind
approach speed and angle

If you can afford a helicopter, you can probably
afford a helipad. The cost of building a lighted
concrete pad large enough for a four-seat, piston-
powered Robinson R44 starts at about $15,000,
according to Tom Schuman, vice president of sales
and marketing at FEC Heliports in Cincinnati.
However, he added, an aluminum rooftop pad
designed for a turbine-powered executive
helicopter and equipped with snowmelt and fire-
suppression capability could run $500,000.

A helipad is not as costly as fueling a presidential convoy from Katsina to Daura. What is this noise about a less than 3m.naira structure? Haba? Nigerians

@ the bolded , from where ?
I guess you meant from Abuja. The cost from Abuja to Katsina remains constant
since an helipad does not replace a jet. In reality, the maintenance cost of an helipad is disproportionately huge especially when the weather is unfavorable. No wonder governmen5s are shelving the plans of building one.
