The Nasarawa State Government has finally received a refund of N9.75 billion from the federal government for its takeover of the former Lafia Cargo Airport.
During a special meeting with selected stakeholders from across the state at the government house in Lafia, the state capital, Governor Abdullahi Sule disclosed this information.
After the federal government took control of the airport, which continued to be known as Usman Dan Fodio Airport in 2022, Sule stated that his administration had been tireless in its pursuit of a refund totaling N9.75 billion.
He, however, insisted that the purpose of convening the meeting was to express gratitude to the stakeholders, including traditional rulers and National Assembly members, who were instrumental in securing the refund.
