The Governor of Kwara State, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, has described the Gateway Agro-Cargo International Airport as a game changer in the country’s aviation sector.
The Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum stated this during an interview with journalists after a courtesy visit to his Ogun State counterpart, Dapo Abiodun, at the Governor’s Office in Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta.
AbdulRazaq had earlier commissioned the 6km Siun-Owode Road in the Obafemi Owode Local Government area of the state.
He said, “The Iperu International Cargo Airport is also a game changer. It is my second or third time landing there, and I must say it is more of an economic airport. It will change the way things will be done in the future.
“It will relieve Lagos airport of cargo and with industrial park going on in the state, the two major industrial parks going on in the state and one has been funded by AFDB and the other by AFREXIM Bank.”
He further stated that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has set the pace by ensuring the delivery of grains to the people of the country to tackle the current hardship being experienced by citizens.
