Photos: History As First Flight Lands At Bayelsa International Airport Built By Gov. Dickson

Twenty-three years after it was created, the first aircraft landed yesterday at the #Bayelsa State International Airport.

According to Governor Seriake Dickson, it is the first aircraft to land in any airport in Izon land, the heartland of the Ijaw. The 3.5-kilometer runway airport, Dickson said, was built at over N65 billion.


 

He said the clarification was important because of Senator Heineken Logbobiri’s statements which said the project cost between N120 to N150 billion.
