BAO Backers congratulate and commend the tenacious spirit, visionary leadership, and unwavering commitment of Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji (BAO) in successfully bringing to life the Ekiti State International Cargo Airport. This monumental achievement, now certified fit for operation, reflects the extraordinary resolve of a rare leader who dares to dream and works relentlessly to turn those dreams into reality.
The completion and certification of the Ekiti State International Cargo Airport are not just milestones but a testament to Governor Oyebanji’s determination to prioritize projects that many doubted could succeed. His administration has displayed an unyielding commitment to the spirit of continuity, seeing through a complex project initiated by his predecessors. This singular accomplishment proves that only leaders of purpose and vision can persevere through thick and thin, ensuring that such transformative infrastructure reaches its operational potential.
*The Advantages of the Ekiti State International Cargo Airport*
With the certification of this world-class facility, Ekiti is now strategically positioned to unlock numerous socio-economic benefits:
.
Ekiti’s abundant agricultural produce, including yams, cassava, cocoa, and palm oil, can now reach international markets faster and more efficiently. This will provide farmers with better earnings and enhance the State's economic growth.
The airport will serve as a catalyst for job creation, directly through airport operations and indirectly through ancillary industries such as logistics, warehousing, and transportation services.
Tourism Development:
The improved accessibility to Ekiti will promote its rich cultural heritage, festivals, and natural attractions, driving the inflow of tourists and fostering economic activities in the hospitality and tourism sectors.
Businesses requiring fast and reliable transportation of goods will be drawn to the state, encouraging industrial growth and positioning Ekiti as a hub for commerce in the Southwest region.
The airport will generate significant revenue for the state through landing fees, cargo charges, and other services, thereby strengthening its internally generated revenue (IGR).
Governor Oyebanji’s bold move in ensuring the operational readiness of the cargo airport is a forward-thinking step that aligns with Ekiti’s vision for sustainable development. By fostering connectivity, attracting investments, and opening the state to global opportunities, this project will undoubtedly transform Ekiti’s economic landscape and improve the standard of living for its citizens.
BAO’s Backers 2030 call on all Ekiti indigenes and well-wishers to join hands in applauding Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji for this monumental feat. His dedication to the prosperity of Ekiti stands as an inspiring example of purposeful governance.
The Ekiti State Cargo Airport is more than just a project; it is a legacy that will serve generations to come. It symbolizes hope, resilience, and the endless possibilities of visionary leadership.
