The airport was closed on February 10, 2010, by the Federal
Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) for the first phase of major
renovation and expansion works. It was re-opened on December 16, 2010,
before going through a third batch of renovations last year. It is now looking like a canal to international and local guests.
The airport had welcomed its first international flight since the renovation in 2013 to change its status.
Despite undergoing three major renovations to the tune of millions of tax payers’ naira, it seems the money is now clogging the drains.
