Experts slam Tinubu’s N100.5bn airport reimbursement plan for Yobe

Experts have criticized President Bola Tinubu's proposal to reimburse the Yobe State Government N100.5bn for constructing the Muhammadu Buhari International Cargo Airport in Damaturu. Aviation industry professionals argue that such state-owned airport projects should be economically viable, with realistic traffic projections and sustainable operational plans, rather than relying on future reimbursement by the Federal Government.

The concerns raised include the economic viability, cost, and management of state-owned airports, as well as the potential for political considerations to influence project costs and standards.
