We know times are hard and Nigerians are hungry and angry. But I hope this will not boil over. But in Oyo State, we have control over what we can do here.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can see that the House has passed the Presumptive Tax Bill. Yes, it came from us because if we need to expand the economy, we need to generate money. I will sign it into law but we will not implement it for now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet me especially thank the members of the committee who worked on the project in the last six weeks to make it possible for the official groundbreaking ceremony to take place today.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome people do not think that upgrading this airport at this time is a good idea, but the decision to upgrade this airport to international standard is based on data and logic. In the next twelve months, this project will be delivered. I will push the envelope.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis airport will connect Oyo State to a global market. It will improve ease of doing business, bringing investments into agribusiness, manufacturing and technology sectors and positioning Ibadan as a true regional business hub.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to him, it is a strategic investment that includes a first and second phase that will culminate in the upgrading of the airport, the runway, airfield lighting, terminal and other critical facilities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Nigeria Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
