Anambra HAIRPORT test land plane..

 Congrats, finally UMUERI HAIRPORT received. TEST planes by Mkpisi.

It was a fanfare, a first class Celebration, something advanced States can't do even if they are launching Intercontinental Nuclear weapon, but yesterday in Anambara, APGA people were over joyed because Finally UMUERI HAIRPORT hosted 3 test flights , just like Bayelsa had one two years ago and till now not another has landed, but the difference is that we have many AIRLINE Owners prior and currently we have  two targeting the third one, so we are more equipped to have a functional Airport as need arise but not priority ..

So why this waste of fund celebrating Inanities?, if it is States that are backward without Men of Timbers and Calibre, we can understand the celebration by thier Government but not a state like Anambara where capable Men who can float Airline like ordinary Taxis are in greater numbers, it is not eye catchy and certainly don't convey a befitting message, but since everything is Politics to the current NKEA bu Nke fa exponent, let me join them and dance. 

Back to the celebration, Infact the money spent on hosting the landing of the Airplanes should do 4 large Roads na ODAKPU, I did not mention anywhere in Central because we have Legislators that matters, they have been tarring roads since the state Government can't Tar not even one Path, talkless of Road, but ONUICHA is in North, they need the Road more than any other Zone, so the money wasted just to have plane land and take off as it is in any Brand new Airport, is something I need to consult the gods for some answers , but I decided to be happy for them that went to the show, unimaginable elation and  excitement from many of them who are seeing Airplane close up for the First time, meaning they will have a sweet dream that they have seen it, some even touched it. 

I saw the over excitement as many of them Rushed to the Runway to touch the plane, some were sighted kissing the Tire, some kissing the body and some walked on the tire track just to feel alright, the only sore sight is that many of them wore APGA uniform to the CINEMA, as if it is APGA campaign rally or they felt that with APGA uniform they may open the Airplane door and allow them to peek inside or even sit on it and the Plane will take them round the State and drop them into thier Yard, so they can boast how connected they are and how they saw God playing Lawn Tennis on Space.

Anambara have had 3 Aviation ministers, I expected to see one on sight to direct affairs, but none was sighted. 

We have Power Brokers in Aviation and thier presence matters the most, but they are missing in action, though we saw Allen Onyema whose knowledge about AIRPORT ended where his business will thrive, those who have the technical know how stayed far away for reasons I don't know. 

Some of the APGA Crowd have been consistent na ichu mmadu afa,like when Obata Osu kidnapped self, send self to Abuja and later arrange all the APGA nonentity to converge at  ENUGWU AIRPORT and welcome him with IGBA EZE dance group. 

They wore APGA uniform on that trip, Infact most of them dreams of going to Airport to wave Bye bye to Aeroplane at any minute as Lazy and unfocused people , but mostly dressed on APGA ABADA without Isi Ojukwu.

Those who have the need for the Airport, those who will use it, those who know the Value, can't be found there on the charade, they simply check the listing to know if Flights have been directed to the place, so they will make Booking for flights, and they don't care if it is Canopies that were erected as arrival or departure lounge, nobody stays a minute after arrival just to feel any Airport and none wants to stay 10 minutes before Boarding but for want of time, some get go Airport and endure the boredom.. But ka anyi na ejegodi. 

So as I join the celebration though from afar, I also want to remind the Governor that the beneficiaries of the Airport are less than 6% of the Citizens, so what we need more is Roads, especially workable Roads and not after landing at the 3.7 RUNWAY that is placed third in Nigeria, behind LAGOS and Abuja, the person will start wobbling through our POT HOLES called Roads, joining those who can't fly the plane but can tell you why they need it more than the Roads that will benefit them.

Now that the Airport is done halfway, we need investment that can create  jobs.

When there are jobs, one can't be at liberty to abandon work place and stand at rented crowd for a whole Day  Maka 1K, Gala and Coke, it's killing the enterprise in us, a minus never a plus. 

Some.will say the HAIRPORT will create Jobs, yes.. But it is only NATIONAL AVIATION HANDLING COMPANY has the authority to employ people at any Airport, as it is Federal Government property on completion, then FAC will handle other things outside the Cargo side of it, Infact Anambara Government can only employ the Grass weeders, meaning those employed can all be from the North or West, it is not our call. 

We know that the Airport may serve as tourist attraction just like SHOPRITE served as one for people who have Main market, Ochanja, Otu okwodu, Relief and others but on seeing Shoprite they went Amock .. The irony is that many of them still go to SHOPRITE today to take picture with ABADA Ndi Apga, but it doesn't matter, after all the Road former Governor created helped to bring many towns out to meet existing civilization and a saying provided "Onye Amaro na oga echi Ozo, mesia Chie Ozo, ogbagide eriri Ozo, orue na ikpere" .

Now that it has been used once, maybe the gate shall be opened so APGA can use it for regular meetings, campaign and relaxation.. 

You know they need to sleep on it, so that nobody will ask how much did ANAMBRA sunk into that Bird Nest?. As it is, you can't hear or know how much we invested on that project or how much it cost and where the money come from or if SINOCHEM who the Governor swore on National Television are doing the project, when he swore that Anambra is not putting Kobo into it. 

DEAR Governor, thanks for the Plane that landed at our ORIENT, SINOCHEM AIRPORT located at UMUERI, it helps to drag our journey closer but kindly try and do roads Maka Ndi na eje ifelu Plane bye bye needs the Road .
