Ogunlesi, who is also the Chairman and Managing Partner of Global Infrastructure Partners, gave this commendation in an interview with newsmen shortly after he was conducted around the Gateway International Agro Cargo Airport, located along Iperu-Ilisan road in Ikenne local council of the state yesterday.

 

“The place is fantastic. I was telling the governor that I have never heard of any airport constructed so fast. In fact, when he told me, I had to bow because I have never heard of an airport built in two years and the concept, the idea, the location and the strategic nature of this airport is breathtaking.

 

“These are precisely the things we need in Nigeria; this is what will take Nigeria forward to the next century and beyond.

“I am ecstatic because as the governor mentioned, the government role is to facilitate the development of the airport; the government has no interest in running airports. There are people whose businesses are to run airports; so we get it built, we get it financed,” Ogunlesi said.

Ogunlesi said the airport built to international standard is capable of taking any size of plane, noting: “The governor said once we get it built, we will find somebody who is in the business of running airport to come and manage it professionally and by the way, they will pay taxes to the government. So that will be good, that is the way things should be done.
