“ The Nigeria Customs and the Nigerian Air Force are coming there.
“We have a firm belief in inclusive agricultural opportunities that will not cut off smallholder farmers, youths and women” said Governor Dapo Abiodun.
Continuing, Abiodun said the airport is going to give exporters the leeway to export cocoa, kolanut, rubber, tobacco, cassava, yam, maize, sweet potato, oil palm, timbre and cashew, among others, adding that it would enable exporters bypass the bottlenecks of the Murtala Muhammad International Airport in Lagos.
He noted further that industries will spring up as soon as it commences operations.

Residents of the areas said both the state and federal governments have forgotten them as though they are not existing.
