Governor Dapo Abiodun, in a statement on Tuesday, described the airport as a strategic asset in the state’s vision to become Nigeria’s foremost industrial and transportation hub. According to the governor, the facility boasts a Category 9 fire cover, an expansive apron space designed to accommodate large cargo aircraft, premium VIP lounges, a fully equipped fire service station, and a state-of-the-art control tower.

He added that these features underscore the administration’s resolve to open up Ogun State to increased economic activity, global connectivity, and job opportunities for its people.

The airport is expected to attract both local and international carriers, facilitate cargo movement, and support the growing demand for corporate and private aviation services in the region.
