 “The airport is here with us and I like what I witnessed today. It is an additional infrastructure for the state and as a believer in the development of integrated transportation infrastructure which necessitated my bills on ‘Railway development’, ‘Harbour/Maritime transportation’, ‘Road infrastructure development’, ‘Infrastructure funding’ etc, I welcome this airport while looking forward to the next phase of development which we should target to interconnect all other transport infrastructure to the airport as a strategy to improve Ease-of-doing-business in the state” he said. 

The Senator, whose critical role in assisting Gov. Obiano’s administration and the other states that they were in our access N35b refund due Anambra State from the Federal Government was well acknowledged, reiterated that government being a continuum, he would, if by God’s grace he eventually wins, continue to drive development in the state for the benefit of Ndi Anambra.  Uba, who later chaired the Anambra State APC stakeholders meeting held at Geneva Hotel, Awka, called for unity in the party to attract more development in the state.  

“I will continue to appeal to all the members of this great party in the state to come together in unity. Our party, APC, has shown commitment to Anambra’s development, starting from the 2nd Niger Bridge project, Amawbia to Umunya portion of Enugu/Onitsha Expressway, Refund for Upper Iweka/Head Bridge to Umunya by Expressway, etc. We have to unite to put the state in the strategic position to sustain the development benefits from APC led State-Fed Govt development synergy in Anambra State” Uba concluded.  Uba also used the opportunity to acknowledge the commitment of the Chief Basil Ejidike led Anambra State APC caretaker committee.
