HOW WILL OSUBI AIRSTRIP GENERATE THE PROJECTED N10B WITHOUT MUCH NEEDED UPGRADE?

-By Zik Gbemre

According to the Osubi Airstrip Manager, Winston Egwuatu, if the airport is functional it will generate N10Billion.

There is nothing to talk about since the Airstrip is still neglected. If they having nothing to say then they should shut up.

If Osubi Airstrip is likely to generate revenue of N10b in two years then what has stopped Festus Keyamo from implementing the expansion of Osubi Runway which presidential approval he announced immediately he was sworn-in minister of Aviation & Aerospace Development.

He told Nigerians that President Tinubu approved N2B naira for the expansion of the Runway of Osubi Airstrip. After two years Osubi Airstrip Runway has not been upgraded and expanded as expected.

What a shame to minister Keyamo and Gov Oborevwori? Osubi Runway upgrade is economically beneficial to Delta state. The land for Osubi Runway expansion is already there unused.

Minister Keyamo, what is exactly the problem? Please inform the public on the status of the upgrade of Osubi Runway. The silence of Minister Keyamo on Osubi Airstrip Runway upgrade is a cause for concern.

Your refusal to do this Osubi Airstrip Runway expansion in your time as an aviation minister is a total demonstration of failure because you are from Uvwie LGA which is also one of the hosts communities to Osubi Airstrip.

Tinubu will not be against the Osubi upgrade if you as minister of Aviation & Aerospace Development approaches him on the challenges you have on Osubi Airstrip Runway upgrade and expansion project.
