The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, on Wednesday unveiled first two of the nine aircraft proposed for Ibom Airline at Victor Attah International Stadium, Uyo.
Moved by this daring steps towards the development of Akwa Ibom State, Saraki commended the leadership qualities of Governor Udom Emmanuel.
The Senate President said Emmanuel by his leadership style has been able to create an environment viable for development.
“Today, we celebrate leadership, we celebrate the good things that can come out of Nigeria, we celebrate the audacity of hope. The governor has created an environment for people to have jobs. We are proud of you in the PDP family that you are one of us,” he said.
Former governor of the state and initiator of the airport project, Obong Victor Attah commended the governor for carrying on the project he started, adding that he was happy that the governor was running the state as a business.
“I thank God that we have Governor Udom Emmanuel who have deemed it necessary to carry on the project we started years ago. I was accused of running the government as a business but I am happy that Udom Emmanuel is running the government as a business. Today we have in front of us the beginning of something that will bring economic development to the state,” he said.
Speaking at the launching, Governor Udom Emmanuel said the airline was a monumental achievement in the state.
He said the aircraft, C-FWNK is only six years old with a sitting capacity of about 90 persons and constitute the newest and modern fleet of the Canadian airbus.
He noted that Akwa Ibom is the only state in the country to run a state owned airport and run an airline, adding that the government is running Ibom Air as a business.
