With all the infrastructural decay & unsightly scene in Abia state? Meanwhile there are Airports in Enugu,Owerri,
& neighbouring PH.So what is the economic importance of an airport in Abia state?

This airport thing is another failed PH monorail(by Amaechi) or MKO Abiola Airport project in Osun(by Aregbejegbese).Ikpeazu must be crazy.

OK. I thought it has been built, I no know say na mere proposal. I wanted to start hailing "ndi Aba". But till its completed, I stand to be Judas.

This is a good development

We the people of Abia State are happy for this project, and we also appreciate President Buhari for supporting us financially and morally towards making this project a success.

We the people of Abia State also appreciate our able Governor for his resilience and doggedness attitude towards putting smile on the faces of Abians.

Governor Okezie Ikpeazu is one in a million, and one of the best in the history of Nigeria.


God bless Governor Ikpeazu,
God bless President Buhari,
God bless Nigeria.

An airport is exactly what Abia state needs at the moment.

How brilliant!

of what economy benefit will they gain ?just for show alone kerosene governor distribution governor ,

Hahahaha

Just imagine a cursed shithole state like Abia that cannot even do ordinary road is talking about airport. Who actually cursed Abia state? okpalaAnambra come carry your shithole Abia state

Just look at the hungry Arabs they brought for this scam

Okezie Ikpeazu should stop this expensive joke.

But shebi Abia get uncompleted Government House project and Aba flyover ?

Just asking.

The picture appears very funny.

Those white men shaaaaa.

I find it funny a bunch of AGPA and APC lost to these clowns. Who ever ran those campaigns needs to fired. The attack ads write themselves.

This is called project “operation sweep” this is the best way to looted billions they could come up with. Check the team, no pepper work in their table, no water, no mic and of course no media among them to report the meeting.

Abia that has not good road, no payment of salary, owning pensioners for 19 months no single project or ongoing infrastructural maintenance is talking about airport?

When the name of a governor is backwardness what do you expect?

The most stupid governor is at it again, someone that is constructing centre table in d name of fly over for the past five years now.

Later they will say we are been marginalized not knowing that the daft are the one marginalizing the intellectual with bad governance.

It's a private investment. The government will only contribute land.

Let's see what private enterprise is able to do

In the south east, Anambra and Abia states have the biggest commerce industry (courtsey of the Ariaria, Onitsha, Nnewi, etc markets) and air transportation in these states is necessary for people and goods. The only worry here is maintenance culture. The maintenance problem extends nationwide to other states. But since that of Abia state is a private investment, maybe it'll be better managed than the government.

There is nothing bad if he have the intention of building airport in Abia state but believe me Ikpeazu is a scam.
Through out last year he was running around and making noise with ENYIMBA ECONOMIC CITY PROJECT and today nothing is heard about it again and its now airport.
