Maybe they want to turn it into a bus park let Ekene Dili Shuku buses be loading from there.
Before it gets to that, Benin airways will take over as their headquarters for their night flights.

If you go to the Dubai International Airport, you'll see visitors more than Emiratis. Does it mean that visitors are dominating Emiratis?

You on the other hand are clowns without a sensible airport in your region. You have an airport and put masts there and a market nearby.

Must you village clowns spoil everything you have? Simply aviation safety tenets, you can't adhere to. Putting shopping plaza in airport.

All these my wawa niggers sef. grin

Enugu State government can buy over the airport and do the upgrade.
A state government to buy over a federal airport while other federal airports get billions for maintenance from the federal government? Chai! Your wickedness is legendary. Any way, don't cry when the consequences of your acts and those you support hit back at you.

Keep your myopic conspiracy theories yourself.

It is just maintenance. Nothing more.

Nobody has time to be hating on you or your ethnic group. Rubbish.

We can imagine your story if those repairs were not carried out. Kindly keep your fairy tales yourself neega.

This is why i say our elite are the most useless! Onyejiocha is even head of the aviation committee in the house isn't she? Imagine if a Igbo president and Igbo avaition minister oversaw the downgrading of the airport in Kano while giving the one in Enugu attention....no guesses for saying what the reaction of the Fulani elite would be!

I said it long before that demon 'won' the 2015 election that if by omission or commission Buhari and his band of Igbo hating bigots take over power in 2015, that our collective aviation goose would be well and truly cooked! That all the gradual changes and status upgrades Senator Oduah and GEJ brought to AIIA Enugu (which were making Igbo haters seeth in anger as this wasn't part of the script written in the late 60s to subjugate Ndigbo)....that all this gains would be reversed! The moment i saw Buhari appoint his relation Hadi-Sirika as aviation minister i knew my prediction would come to pass!

This is why i laugh at Igbos still stupid and gullible enough to believe in 'one Nigeria' and expect to be treated fairly and equally with the other two major ethnic groups!

Inasmuch as our elites are useless, u should on d other hand check from d other angle, what if there is a force in dat cabal dat made them not to speak.
Take for instance on d issue of Stella Oduah dat sworn and oath to make Enugu airport. What dey did to her

The Federal Government says it will shut down the Enugu ‘Akanu Ibiam’ International Airport due to deplorable state of its runway.

Igbere TV reports that the Minister of Aviation (State), Hadi Sirika made the disclosure at a stakeholders forum on Friday in Lagos.

He said the airport will be degraded for international operations because the runway length is not ideal for such operations.

According to him, the market, television masts and free trade zone needs to be relocated for the airport to be fit for safe flights.

The minister also said the Lagos International Airport terminal would be partially pulled down by Julius Berger Limited for major facelift that will cost N14 billion.

This, he said, will happen after the inauguration of the new terminal.

The North were not happy that the airport was made international. You want to degrade it from being international, why you pull down already good run way of Lagos airport and spend 14 billion to upgrade it. Why can't you spend only 2 billion to upgrade Enugu airport? Buhari budget to upgrade the airport last year with 500 million later he cancelled it with excuse there's no money and he donate 500,000 dollars free to Guinea Bissau. The only Federal project at entire East yet to upgrade it is too painful in mind of Nigerian's. The something is happening in shipping ports instead Bari and dryland ports works in the North. And when one shout marginalized or want independent it become a taboo

It is rather the opposite, Yoruba is more educated, enlightened and Richer than your Wretched Generation. We are not the one migrating in drove to push wheelbarrow and Sell Gala in Igbo Land, and a Yoruba man and woman is the second Richest in Africa. You can only bark like Dog as usual

The FG will spend 14billion to give Lagos airport a facelift.

But can't spare even 1billoin to correct what it says is wrong with Enugu airport.

After, they will say we should not talk.
The state needs to relocate the market and free tradezone first, so in normal politics the state government and the senate president who is from enugu state would lobby the Fg and relocate the those structures.
Politics all over the world is all about lobby, nor sentiment or pity

Enugu that their annual IGR is not up to that of what the FG gets from Oba Akran Road and Acme Road in Ikeja.

The factories in Oba Akran and Acme remit more taxes than the entire Enugu. If I add Agidingbi, it would erase Enugu and Ebonyi.

A president has an obligation to the entire country
Whether that part of the country voted you or not

That is the way it is....

But the black man mentality is prevalent in the zoo failed country

that is why many people think like you


The entire country pays taxes and the govt collect revenues

why then will a government DELIBERATELY marginalize a section of the country (that is IF the allegation is true)

@Angelicbeing
You see the mindset of a country in which those fvckers on the other thread said will get better?

By now you should know that, you have to ignore some posters because the poverty in Nigeria has formatted their brains to analog, when you see such posters and their comments, ignore them, we have many of them roaming online with frustrations, your president called Buhari is eating fried chicken and turkey plus Hennessey in Saudi Arabia and zombies are online clapping hands for him grin
