Against the backdrop of the growing interest by state governments to build new airports despite not being economically viable, the National Bureau of Statics (NBS) has revealed that about seven international airports in Nigeria have recorded no passengers at all in the first quarter of 2014 while Lagos and Abuja airports recorded highest.
The airports with zero patronage include International airports in Calabar, Kaduna, Sokoto, Ilorin, Maiduguri, Minna and Katsina.
