The APGA chairman addressed journalists on Wednesday.
The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has described the plan by the Abia State Government to build an airport as a `misplaced
priority’.
Briefing journalists in Aba on Wednesday, the Abia State Chairman of APGA, Prince Ukaegbu, said the project was the least problem of the people.
“The state government’s reported plan to build an airport in the state is like the case of a poorly-fed man whose children are driven away from school over fees but prefers to buy a luxury car.
“Aba roads are impassable and the city is in squalor. Rather than fixing the poor infrastructure in the state, the government is busy
planning big projects that are unrealisable.
“How can a government that cannot construct half a kilometre road in one year be talking of building an airport in less than 15 months to the expiration of its tenure?’’ he questioned.
The chairman, however, advised the government to look inwards and focus on projects that would positively impact on the people.

I strongly support Apga, from owerri airport to Aba is just 25 min, to Umuahia same thing. The airport proposal is not a top priority to me.

At least it is good to see these guys telling themselves sense. I dont even know what those SouthEast governors tell themselves in their meetings.
