Addressing the recent protest by women from Ipo, a host community of the International Airport in the state, Governor Fubara expressed optimism about resolving the issues between the community and the airport management.
He said he has already held a meeting with community stakeholders and the airport’s management.
The governor noted that the community, apart from demanding the implementation of corporate social responsibility, became angry when none of their indigenes was included in the recent recruitment of about 50 airport staff by the airport authority.
