The Government need to work on the Lagos international airport. It's in a bad state. The conveyor belt for baggage is torn, the sanitary stardard is very poor, and the staff are not professional enough. There needs to be a complete overhaul of the management. Ovation is incomplete untill there is a uniformed progress in every region of the Country, not in Abuja alone.
