Nigerian Governors' Unviable Airport Projects Criticized for Financial Burdens

The article criticizes Nigerian governors for building unviable airports, leading to financial burdens on the state governments. Olubunmi Kuku of FAAN highlighted that many state-owned airports struggle to cover operational costs, with only a few recording significant air traffic.

Despite low passenger traffic, governors continue to invest in airport projects, questioning the rationale behind such decisions. This trend mirrors the federal government's approval for states to build airports in 2020, with concerns raised about the financial viability and sustainability of these projects.
