Egbe noted that the Yenagoa airport would not only open up the state, but make the hosting of local and international sporting events in Yenagoa easy. The airport is one facility that would not only open up the state, but also boost sports and tourism,” Egbe said. Now that we have an airport in Yenagoa, taking international sporting events to Bayelsa would be easy. It would be noted that two aircrafts yesterday made their inaugural flights into Yenagoa international airport. The state was agog just as there has been an outpouring of commendation and encomiums on Governor Henry Seriake Dickson, the Architect of the New Bayelsa.
