The recently opened Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu recorded its first ever international flight today Saturday August 24th. An Ethiopian Airline which flew in from Addis Ababa landed at the airport around 12:15pm today. The flight was welcome with wild jubilation from people who gathered at the airport to witness the event. Four Nigerians governors, Theodore Orji of Abia, Peter Obi of Anambra, Martin
Elechi of Ebonyi and Sullivan Chime of Enugu were also there today to witness the historic event. See more photos after the cut...

That's good for the people of Enugu and other Easteners. Now they can travel to other international country's without flewin down to Lagos. But hope is not going to course the Rise of Biafra.

That's a good development. More of that..
Thank God it landed safely, bcus na so so plane crash we dey see 4 naija o
thank God.
nice job, kudos to all those who made this happen, especially the Minister of Aviation Mrs Oduah, probably the only Minister doing anything tangible. I'm impressed by the show of brotherly love by the other 3 Governors who joined Sullivan Chime, they can obviously see the bigger picture. Congrats Enugu State, congrats Nigeria....and this is from a yoruba man, pls let us stop the recent tribal tension & hatred between the Yorubas and Ibos, let's appreciate our diversity, it should actually make us stronger.
Flewin down? Really? Is not... Course the rise? Do u speak English?
Four #Nigerian governors

"Flewing" down to lagos? Like seriously? It's "Flying".Thank me later.
Also "cause" not "course". May God deliver u from grammatical errors.
Nice one..D new Development Agenda
This shows advancement. Thank God
Did u jus write 'flewing'& 'Course' ? Smh for u o!
A standard airport don't have people walking around the Tarmac, whatever happened to the mobile passage way to the lobby or main building..#half baked development, and they all excited!
A direct entry for 419ers and drug smugglers wow!! I guess murtala mohammed airport was becoming too tough on you criminals, so you guys found another way to continue your activities. Kudos!!!
Very Beautiful....... #whetherUlikeitornot
ROCHAS OF APC DID NOT ATTEND. OKAY OH
Jonathan is really doing a lot for the south-east. At least the dependence in lagos and porthacourt will reduce drastically. Only that, when time comes after 2019, the igbos cannot be president. That's my fear. He wll hand over to sambo and there is nothing we can do because he has shot our mouths wiv all d goodies he is giving us.
Famzing, u wan rip where u no sow....oloshi
Them dey prepare. We know.
Blood of God!!!!! Dude did you actually use flewin or does my phone need glasses? Chei!!! You need to have written it in your language na if English too hard. God!!! Flewin? Chei!! I don die

An airport that can't boast of the ordinary night landing facility is now termed an international airport. Nigeria we hail thee..
Madam oduah aviation minister tanx for doing this buh it doesn't end here de main task is to pump naija moni to make dat airport de most beautiful in west africa build edifice there cos dis naija moni we hav not benefited frm it b4 now is de turn of de igbos.
C how d governors are staring like fools,so they like better things especially sister peter obi(gov anambra)lol
Great one.
You are very foolish to think its d downfall of lagos. We are more than happy. "Igbo must go"
Always proud of Gov Sulli..the only Gov in Nigeria!!!
Awon ode which ibo's must go , if we leave you lazy Yorubas would be handicapped , the only thing you know is party , you all can party from Monday to Sunday awon oniranu , awon onidoti jati jati , you would rather your wives bring in the money for you ,the ones that have the so called money are into drugs and 419 . If we leave hunger go finish unna die .
Biafrans its time to build your land, @foolish yoruba man saying igbos must go, igbo's don't need you lazy goats
Am still wondering why this anti-Igbos Gov. Rochas Okorocha was absent, is it dat he dont like to see good things in Igbo land or what?
Whatever! I thank u Mr Presido and i urge u to pls do something in our educatnal 6tem cos that iz where the future of this great country depends on.
Long Live Johnathan!
Long Live Igbos!
Long Live Nigeria!
Thank this kobo kobo ppl go sef. Next na owerri airport and dredging river niger. We need less ppl in lagos. Make market ppl,street hawkers and tout leave lagos. We have oil now so we will make our lagos another dubai. Next na ilorin airport make all the ara ilu oke go home. Eko a mora wa
