Fayose Inaugurates Committee On Ekiti Airport Project by ochejoseph(m): 9:38pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
The Ekiti State government has set up a five-man committee to see to the take-off of the proposed Ado-Ekiti Airport project within the next few weeks. The constitution of the committee followed a meeting held by the state governor, Mr Ayo Fayose, with stakeholders involved in the project at the Governor’s Office, Ado-Ekiti. In a statement on Wednesday, by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, the committee would start with the marking out of the 2,000 hectares out of the 6,000 hectares of land set apart for the project. The committee has as chairman, Mr Kayode Osho, who is the Commissioner for Works. Governor Fayose, while speaking during the meeting, said the state government might start with the construction of a standard airstrip and that it could be improved upon in the future. The governor said with the prevailing financial constraint the state is experiencing, it would be foolhardy to embark on any grandiose project. “For every project there must be the political will to make it work. No matter how small an airport is, as long as it meets aviation standards it is welcome. Even if it is an airstrip, we need it. “We believe in little beginning even though we don’t have the resources now. We are willing and I believe with God all things are possible. The airport must start and we need a standard airstrip that can be improved on in the future,” he said. Fayose said a fund raising dinner for the project would be held later in Lagos. Also speaking, renowned lawyer, Chief Afe Babalola (SAN), said he mooted the idea for the state to have an airport in 2009. “I thank Governor Ayodele Fayose for revisiting this issue. It was in 2009 that I mooted the idea and Federal Government approved Bayelsa, Delta and Ekiti airports and voted money for them. All we were expected to do was to look for appropriate place and key into the matter.” www.tribuneonlineng.com/node/17153
