Regardless of what might be his shortcommings, Dave Umahi has done remarkably pretty well for his people and state of Ebonyi.

[@nduodiaka1739]

What is the unemployment rate in eboyin?

[@tonyolujobi4457]

@@nduodiaka1739, for your information, it is not the job of the government to create employment but to create an enabling environment for businesses to thrive and thereby employ. If you don't know, this airport will create lots of jobs and income, not only for Ebonyi people but for all people that will be linked to the use of this airport.

Umahi, I put it to you, you are the king of infrastructure. Thank you for changing the face of Ebonyi State. You are addressed how you dress. You have dressed our young state so beautifully. Shame on whoever will have the gots to address any Ebonyian derogatorily as "Nwa Abakaliki. I can't wait to fly through our own airport. Thank you Sir

Alhamudulillah Rabbil Aalameen, for the completion of this beautiful international airport, kudos to the governor and all that makes the project done.

[@MurphyNwafada]

If Ebonyi state Airport could cost 36 billions of naira only, with the standard and customised.. Anambra state own airport should be 15 to 17 billions of naira? How come kai Kai Obiano indebted Anamabra state with more 140 billions of naira, upon over 75 billions of naira Peter Obi kept in Bank... Which Ebonyi IGR is smaller to compare Anambra state IGR...

[@MurphyNwafada]

@@gabrielchikaodiri7948 I don't get your point 👉, Willie kai Kai told ndi Anambra that he used over 140 billions of naira To build that jadi jadi airport ? Then David umahi used 36 Billion Naira, to build international standard with extra design, plus presidential house 🏠 and all sorts of quality ? I am not David umahi fan ooo, but Obiano and his street wife will never have peace in this world 🌎.. Wike of rivers state used Julius Berger in most of his project in River's state and was more cheaper price than what people think, still only local airport that's not completed swallow almost Anambra funds...

[@uchelemchi5181]

That’s a good one, and it will be a good idea if the incoming governor buys into Ebonyi owning an airline. Ebonyi air sounds nice.

This is beautiful and laudable. But I sincerely hope this project doesn't lie fallow in coming years.

[@evansukpai8279]

The governor has done absolutely well By providing infrastructure in the area of flyover airport shopping mall the medical college, but I'm not impressed with the area of road infrastructure especially the road linking afikpo to abakaliki which he failed to dualized for eight years, rather than invite competent firm like Julius berger /CCECC/ Setraco/ Nigercat or Arab contractor, but he choose to be using cement to be casting major federal road, the one that annoyed me is when I travel to my homeland Last November after spending four weeks in village when I came back to yenagoa, I spent more than (140,000) fixing my car to my own assessment Dave umahi has perform very poor in the area of road infrastructure

[@agwuamos3739]

Oga, don't lie

[@onyekagodwin6622]

Pls where re u from in ebonyi state,because I don't understand what u mean by he performed poorly on road infrastructure..I agree with the part u complained about afikpo abakaliki road,supposed to be a double lane..but the bad sports on that road,is from abaomege to timber shade junction,from abaomege to abakaliki is a smooth ride..from abakaliki to isu my village in onicha LG u wont see a single port hole..and it has never been so since I was born..pls explain better..where's ur home town in ebonyi state.

[@ivediiche]

This is all very nice, but is it truly an international airport? When are the first international airlines scheduled to start flying from this airport? Will it end up like Enugu and Anambra so-called international airports? All in name only? Surely, a railway network linking the major towns in Ebonyi, and the rest of the south east, would benefit more people and help boost the local economy. Lack of vision is a terrible thing.

[@elijahugoh1150]

First thought in the right direction in this comment section. I wonder how high an international airport ranks on the list of things important to Ebonyi at this time.

[@olumakisstv3440]

So sad how backwards most people reason, can't you see the multiple infrastructure put out by the able governor the Engineer Dave Umahi School of medicine and many more that requires people from far and wide how then will all these thrive without an international airport. Give honour to whom it's due. Other projects can be done by incoming governor that is reason there's continuity in government.
