Erm, is this really Sokoto Airport baggage claim area? (Photos)
A LIB reader passing through the airport this morning took the photos and sent it in. Is this what the baggage claim area of Sokoto Airport really looks like? Is the airport currently undergoing renovations? See more photos after the cut...
Didn't γ̥ ☺u read news...another minister of aviation ha§ been appointed...so if it is true that is under construction...they will surely complete it soon...omo that airport is nothing to write home about ooo

This is exactly sokoto airport. Been there a couple of times and the waiting area is even a tent. The place is like in the 40's yet all the big shots in the north fly through there.
That's it!!! Got me wondering the first time I saw it... And one aviation minister spent $$$$ just for two bullet proof cars... God I'd watching these people *lip sealed*
at least thank God say u see port land put. The govt should be ask many questions. the Port Harcourt baggage claim area is no much different from that too just a tarpolin to cover thats what they put there. Lagos only has the most standard airport.
Bonario, this is the first time you sound very silly, there is no Boko Haram in sokoto, educate yourself sokoto is not even north east, # yourfirstignorantcomment
Na every time the airport they temporary construction? who is deceiving who?abeg is been like dat since. even PH dats how dem dey say he dey temporary construction, when the temporary go permanent. We have the money to make it permanent but naija political robbers would not allow it.
Linda Ikeji and d unpatriotic citizen that sent dis pix. But i blame d foolish person dat sent d pix to Linda. He shd av sent d full pix of d airport, its currently undergoin repairs. We are always d cause of 9ja's prob. wat do u think d oyibos wil think seeing dis pix.... i dey vex
Ode niyin. D Norfolk Int'l airport is under renovation......but super duper far from this nonsense. Baggage claim outside d airport/lobby??!! R u freaking kidding me? Wake up n stop forming Naija is in order
Thank God u guys are seeing this too. I was at the same airport back in January, it's realy pathetic, we had to wait for a tractor to convey our baggage to the claim area, I couldn't help but lmao........it's realy annoying, I thought the airport was undergoing some renovations, only for me to find out that it has been in this same condition for years........but that's my country!
Weather sokoto, ibadan, PH, calabar or kano they are all under Nigeria. And ministry of Aviation control them. So, Why not ask minister of Aviation this kind of question. ⌣̊┈̥-̶̯͡»̶̥♡thanks ⌣̊┈̥-̶̯͡»̶̥
@Jayz you are part of the cancer that has been sucking the positive light out of Nigeria....am very sure your room and house look like a dung heel.....
it is thinking poverty thinking like this that has gotten us Nigeria to this pathetic standard of living that we endure in nigeria
I am currently residing in sokoto and I often use the airport. The main block has been completely raised down and rebuilt, now it is 95% complete. Very magnificent structure. the person that sent the picture to you has a very bad mind and it is because of such people that Nigeria is not developing. The sadder story is that they have a platform like lindaikeji.blogspot that will post their pics without verification
I was there Nov 2013. The airport is undergoing a MAJOR transformation. This is just temporary but also very embarrassing and they also do MANUAL SEARCH on luggage.
And u nigga, talking trash bout port harcourt airport,, I'm sure u have never been close to any airport in your life talk less of entering.. b sure before u talk rubbish u hear!!
Pls oo! U people shld not compare this airport wit PH airport, if u hav flown recently u wld notice that d departure is now very kool and d arrival. Meanwhile Abj airport is also very good not only Lagos airport.
Nigerians when your guys will stop the word GOD is watching you about those politicians my fellow brothers and sister is time we take action by our own hands na we all get Naija not only the politicians they are taking from us.. look at Egypt they fight for their right, look at Syria fighting for their right is t ime we start ours long leave Nigeria

I don't get. What do you intend to achieve with this silly post? To ridicule the giant strides of GEJ administration as usual? If an Airport is under construction, how do u expect it to look like? Madam wan ur self ooo. Tell the goat that sent you this, that next time he should endeavor to capture the entire airport and sent to u.
I was there some days ago. It's under renovation. But it's very obvious that the things used esp the windows aren't of good quality, they already have cracks! Everything is being done manually. God help our country!
Linda you should know better. Try a little investigation before posting. The airport is under renovation. The baggage area is just like that of Lagos when renovation was going on. Be a little bit patriotic abeg. The ex aviation minister did a fantastic job lets applaud her for it. Am currently out of the country and l could not believe my eyes when l got to MMA's departure hall. Go take a look yourself & l hear it's same for most domestic airports. Let's give praises so others can emulate not just condemnation .....amaka
@Jagz even if the airport is going through refurbishing this is still a pathetic sight. Nothing unpatriotic about this. its good we see what the true picture of what things really look like.
Bona u sound ignorant....cos there's no boko haram in sokoto.sokoto is more peaceful than where you're living...the person that sent this is a hater cos the new terminal is almost completed and he cudn't send that.i work in this airport and love the place to bits.
@Bonario NNagz... U are such a tribalistic uneducated idiot. Na pple lyk u wan divide Nigeria. Who told U its every city of Nigeria dat is Boko Haram prone. Am vry sure u dnt even kno d geopolitical zone Sokoto belongs to
LINDA, IT IS BETTER THIS WAY.....ANYTHING GOOD BUILT IN THE NORTH WILL BE DESTROYED BY BOKO HARAM. SO THEY SHOULD SPEND MONEY BUILDING BETTER AIRPORT FACILITIES FOR THESE IDIOTS TO BURN DOWN.
All the pictures are very true and very correct. No Photoshop nor editing whatsoever. I shuttle this airport between Abuja and Sokoto and that is the true picture. But I don't really see a big deal in the picture because even the international airports that are equipped with conveyor belt most other times handle baggage in this manner. Besides bad structures needing maintenance.
Linda thats how it is, but in fairness to them the airport is undergoing renovations. and between when i flew in january and 2nd week of February to Sokoto there was noticeable improvement, at least the waiting area is now completed and uesable.
GUYS CHILL OUT, I SERVED IN SOKOTO AND THIS ISN'T HOW THE AIRPORT LOOKS LIKE. PRESENTLY SOME RECONSTRUCTIONS ARE GOING ON (LOOK OUT FOR THE PIC WITH A GREY BUILDING BY THE SIDE, THAT'S PART OF THE MAIN AIRPORT)
Hello Linda my name is DIMBO ATIYA i beg you in the name of God to send me an email address i can send you true pictures of what Sokoto airport looks like. I had the privilege as an independent documentary Director to tour all the airports recently and I can confirm that this is the temporary check in area for the airport which was in use during the renovation. The airport has just been completed and put to use and these pictures are a deliberate attempt to embarrass the government . If this person was honest enough he or she would have given you pictures of what that airport looks like now. Its the best in the entire country. I beg you to send me your email and i will send you very recent pictures of the airport. Pls send to dimboatiya@yahoo.com and i will contact you back immediately. Thank you.
@cool gist or woteva u cal urself, stop adresin human beings lyk u hausa cos d almighty God created us 2 be 1. He did nt demacate us frm dem so pls put a stop 2 dat nd luv dem as urself...
I shldnt evn sweat ova dis clear show of ignorance on linda's part.bcos like oda blogs nd nigerians 'she dey find hw 2 chop' nd 'true researched' journalism aint her problem..sokoto airport is one of d 1st in nigeria.evn wen I was a kid dat airport dint look lik dis talk more of now (20yrs later).d stewpid numbskull shld hav snapped oda airports in nig presently under construction nd send it 2u na.everyday wit every report u mk me less interestd in ur crappy blog.oya blind suporters of linda attack.mscheew

@hot cool gist must u be tribalistic in issues like this, its really a shame, what concerns the northerners is supposed to concern the whole nation, or how on earth are we supposed to move forward if we dnt behave as one?
