DNN found out that the only aircraft that has landed in the airport is a military aircraft designed to land almost anywhere. It was hired by former governor, Kayode Fayemi for inauguration where he was accompanied by Hadi Sirika, the then minister of Aviation. Carved out of the old Ondo State in 1996 by former military dictator General Sanni Abacha, Ekiti State currently has an estimated population of about 3.6 million, mostly smallholder farmers.

Aggrieved  farmers whose farms were affected by the ongoing airport project along Ado-Ijan Road in Ekiti State protested on Monday over the non-payment of compensations allegedly promised to them by the state government.
