Nice listing of airport projects around Nigeria. Abuja airport is about to undergo a major upgrade as a contract for a second runway and MRO facility has been awarded. I think the reason Obudu airport is being developed to have a 5.6km runway is because of the altitude of the location. The higher the altitude, the tinner the air becomes which means the planes will need more runway length for take offs than they would require for runways situated closer to sea level. If eventually completed as specified. FGN might want to acquire it from the state for strategic military considerations as some military planes require unusually long runways to land and take off successfully. Also, very large cargo planes that carry special heavy cargo such as amored tanks, aeroplane fuselages and other large/heavy items can be landed here. Calabar's airport is a very long distance from Obudu, hence it's not out of place to have an airport there to help improve the tourism prospects of that side of Cross River. Bebi airstrip (the current airport at Obudu) cannot handle large aeroplanes due to the length of the runway and location.
@@nsikakessien Time will tell. But I know work has commenced. If you open Google maps and switch to earth view and zoom in on Obudu township (the south west corner), you'll be able to see that the runway is already being constructed. It's at a laterite level as per the last Google update. But I haven't been able to find an up-to-date Media coverage or even RUclipsr video on this location. Perhaps, the distance from Obudu to any other state capital in Nigeria.
The Victor attah Airport seems to be the most amazing of them all as it features a smart international terminal. smarter than the federally owned terminals in Abuja and Portharcourt plus It will give Ibom air the ability to carry out international flights from akwa ibom state.
@@nsikakessien you and ‘Hunchou; the both of you will definitely comment in any video about Akwa ibom 😊, tho I get wonder how you people usually get those videos
@@okon1624 😀it's good that promote our state bro. We need to market our state so that investors can come in and create jobs for our people cos the government alone can not it all. lf we demarket our state, we'll end up doing ourselves more harm than good.
@@nsikakessien yeah bro, but fact is most videos is about road trips, not seeing much industry videos, and I think the governor should permit RUclipsrs to vlog the construction site, like the airport and the mro facility even the international worship center, in which i demanded a video about it from a RUclipsr but unfortunately access was not given. Given access to places like that will attract more investors and promote the state. Like the Ebonyi international airport construction have seen a lot of videos about it. But ours where? Excepts what the government shows, give RUclipsrs access let the them do the marketing.
This is fresh and interesting! If I am not mistaken, the voiceovers for such videos used to be foreigners and not just foreigners, but white foreigners! They would always butcher the Nigerian names and names of our cities and towns! This Nigerian voice is so pleasant to hear!
Pls u are wrong about the sponsor of the Anambra international Cargo and Passenger Airport. I is true that their was an initial plan plan for the airport to be a PPP project, under Build Operate and Transfer Agreement, but that arrangement did not go through again becos the Chinese company were delaying on kick starting anything on the project sit after about 2 years of conception. So the state Government now decided on their own to fund the entire project. So what am trying to say is that Anambra State Government under the watchful eye of the former Governor Willie Obiano built and completed that airport with Anambra state money without borrowing a dime to fund it.
It is a pity some people don't know the best when they see them... for me the akwa ibom international airport will be the best in south east No won come close 🤣🤣
I'm not seeing any international airport here. Do Nigeria govt don't travel out and view airport building in develop countries???? No single international airport among the list all are local
It's the elevation of the airport that calls for it. Obudu has a high altitude which means the air is thinner which means a large plane will require more runway to safely takeoff. I believe that's why the runway is being built to that speciation.
Most of these are white elephants projects that are total waste of money. I wish they could be utilized more and bring revenue, instead of just being used for pilgrimage once a year and politicians using it to go for weddings.
Yet ...people say nothing, absolutely nothing is happening in nigeria, in less populated countries these airports alone can employ almost 20% of their entire population directlyor indirectly.....I believe much needs to be done with lots that's already happening.
Most politicians just want to provide the convenience of leaving their states to let say Abuja without having to spend hours on the road traveling to the neighboring state to access their airport facility. However my concern is with Cross river that has another airport under construction with calabar airport in existence.

That's if the Airport will ever be completed and won't be like the Spaghetti Flyover in Calabar🤣😂

This is very good 👍. The government is doing great in ensuring that their project is accomplished. Keep it up 💯 💯

This is very good and it's educative™
Looking forward to the Ekiti State Airport..... It would be nice to fly into Ado Ekiti from Lagos or Abuja.
Great history and nice documentary
Glad you enjoyed it
I like eboanyi ekiti and atta airport
The Victor attah Airport seems to be the most amazing of them all as it features a smart international terminal. smarter than the federally owned terminals in Abuja and Portharcourt plus It will give Ibom air the ability to carry out international flights from akwa ibom state.
Wow this is very good.. At least the government is working now

😀😁😁Thank you.. It my voice
This is impressive. Wow!!!.
Wow!this is amazing work from the government.
It is
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Ebonyi state airport will be the best in south east and west as a whole when is completed
I love my Anambra airport but I hope you are right. It is not a competition! I want Nigeria as a whole to start working and moving forward!
Akwa ibom will be the best.
it just funny how most of them are not at full capacity now
This is very nice
the video is an interesting one
Good work
Thank you so much 😀
Very nice and beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!

This is very nice and interested , the government is making progress now
It is a pity some people don't know the best when they see them... for me the akwa ibom international airport will be the best in south east No won come close 🤣🤣
The Akwa Ibom Airport is in the south south although it is the best on the list
Bro! Akwa-ibom is not in S/E.
I dey tell you .. Ibom people are light years ahead .. what a masterpiece
Anambra international airport is the best
I'm not seeing any international airport here. Do Nigeria govt don't travel out and view airport building in develop countries???? No single international airport among the list all are local
wrong, the ebonyi airport and akwa ibom are international
Very interesting
Glad you think so!
Why on earth is someone building a 5.6km runway?
to break a record I guess😀
It's the elevation of the airport that calls for it. Obudu has a high altitude which means the air is thinner which means a large plane will require more runway to safely takeoff. I believe that's why the runway is being built to that speciation.
Most of these are white elephants projects that are total waste of money. I wish they could be utilized more and bring revenue, instead of just being used for pilgrimage once a year and politicians using it to go for weddings.
Yobe government should be arrested immediately, how can he build that rubbish for 18billion naira... this is injustice
Lol, I think you should see Bayelsa airport that cost the state government 72 billion.😄
I think the Yobe airport is worth it a bit
Yet ...people say nothing, absolutely nothing is happening in nigeria, in less populated countries these airports alone can employ almost 20% of their entire population directlyor indirectly.....I believe much needs to be done with lots that's already happening.
What's the point of constructing airports that are not utilised.
Most politicians just want to provide the convenience of leaving their states to let say Abuja without having to spend hours on the road traveling to the neighboring state to access their airport facility.
However my concern is with Cross river that has another airport under construction with calabar airport in existence.
@@webnobarafrica Hence, airports are being constructed for "personal" convenience, instead of economic considerations.
Anambra Airport was fully and solely funded and built by Anambra state government.
I have taken notes. thank you🙂
most of them are now non profitting and considered waste projects
Amazing
Wow this is very good at least the government is working now
