Oro Governor, Gary Juffa, in delivering his speech expressed gratitude to the PNG government and Asian Development Bank for the successful delivery of the upgraded Girua Airport.
Governor Juffa said the opening ceremony is long time coming.
While he remains an opposition strong man, he is adamant to work with the government to facilitate development in the province.
He appealed to the National Airport Corporation to align its support with the Oro Provincial Government.
This he says is to ensure further development such as Popondetta’s improvement will complement the modernized Girua Airport.
