Wetin dey happen for MMIA wey plenty pipo dey waka pass? You don’t hear say power no gree show for Terminal 1 on Saturday? Chai! E be like say changeover circuit get wahala, na so Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) yan.
Dem don quickly come out to clear the air, say dem don make move to bring back light as fast as dem fit. As dem talk say, “We acknowledge say light no dey for Terminal 1 yesterday. E be say na changeover circuit get issue.” Dem dey talk true, e get as e be.
FAAN no just dey throway matter, dem say dem technical team don waka quick quick, bridge gap, and transfer power give secondary grid. And dem still employ backup measures to restore light even before flight dem begin miss dem time. Na wetin we fit call top-notch emergency response!
As dem dey apologize for the wahala wey some passengers experience, dem also drop that one wey fit ginger us, say dis kain thing dey show say we get *long-standing infrastructure limitations* for Terminal 1. Na so wahala go dey if we no fix am well, abi?
Right now, Terminal 1 dey prepare for serious work wey go happen soon as dem plan shut am down for MMIA Rehabilitation and Expansion Project wey go start next month. No even fall for ground, e no dey possible to install any new permanent backup equipment now wey light don waka. Dem dey push for people to understand say better days dey come.
Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, don join matter, he dey talk say he don engage FAAN about d power wahala, and dem don settle the issues sharply. E no make sense make airport wey dey vex our heart still dey suffer power problem while dem dey plan to modernize am. E go fit hard if we no upgrade dis place.
The Federal government approve up to N712 billion to renovate dis place wey dem call national disgrace. For Federal Executive Council meeting, as President Bola Tinubu dey preside dem talk say dis renovation no fit waste time, e go even cover substantial upgrades for every corner of dis airport.
Omo, dis project no be small thing; we sabi dem go rebuild Terminal 1 from scratch, including access roads and lights wey dey shine bright bright. As dem plan everything finish, with N49.9 billion go cover perimeter fence wey go add all the security measure wey we need, like CCTV and solar lights, feel secure anywhere as we dey waka.
This na the kind upgrade wey we dey talk for this airport, make we no slack. E get as e go be when we finally get correct light and better environment for all dem passengers wey dey use the airport. E go be like say we dey enter tomorrow.
