  1. Dis really good buh don’t know why dia’z no airport in Ebonyi…… buh I believe dat someday we will get 1

  2. I remember when Sam mbakwe was building the IMO airport they are going house to house community to community collecting money.Sam mbakwe was the best governor IMO people ever have

  3. This is helpful though, Akanu Ibiam is an Ebonyian, that very airport in Enugu would have been situated in Ebonyi if not for lateness in creation of the state

  4. The process of constructing one in Anambra is currently going on. Very soon, it will commence. However, travellers can make use of the Asaba International Airport for it is the closest Airport to Anambra.
