The sand filling is four meters from the soil. It<br \/>\ntook more than one year for West Minister dredging to do it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Minister of State for Agriculture and Natural Resources, Heineken<br \/>\nLokpobiri lied that the airport was flooded just to de-market it. I can<br \/>\nassure you that even the devastating flood of 2012 will not flood this<br \/>\nplace. It is sad and unfortunate that these people are just playing<br \/>\npolitics with the development of our people, politics of of bitterness,<br \/>\njealousy, and envy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Federal Government said they were going to build the terminal<br \/>\nbuilding for us. We waited but they never did. In January we awarded the<br \/>\nbuilding, and that is what we have there. That is how they treat us and<br \/>\nsadly too, that is how we treat ourselves in some cases.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thank the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, and the NAF<br \/>\nfor protecting the facilities. I am indeed grateful to the security forces<br \/>\nespecially the Army for their role they have played. I wish to let you<br \/>\nknow that our sea port will soon start.
