Stakeholders in the aviation sector, as well as residents of South-East, on Wednesday, hailed the arrival of another airline at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu.



The United Nigeria Airline touched down at the Airport Wednesday afternoon, amidst jubilation by passengers and stakeholders.



DAILY POST gathered that this brings to 7, the number of airlines operating from the Airport.



Speaking to journalists shortly after the demonstration flight landed, the Manager, Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Mrs. Cecilia Oguama said the development would boost activities within and outside the Airport.



She said, “we are glad for the increase of flight operations, increase of passengers too. It will affect our revenue positively because with this flight now, we have almost 7 domestic airlines.



“So, passengers will have more choice, they are starting with Lagos and Abuja and I know very soon, they will expand to other routes.



“My expectation is that they will bring excellency on board, they will bring timeliness on board and they will improve generally on the system.”



Also speaking, Mr. Victor Egbo, HOD Commercial, Akanu Ibiam International Airport, re-echoed the joy shared by the Airport Manager.



Egbo said, “This is a whole gamut of revenue source for us; overtime we had just about two airlines operating from Enugu. Just now today, having an additional airline, we have at least an additional 10 percent of our annual revenue, aeronautic revenue source.



“It is a very big thing for us. And also for Enugu and the people of the South-East, this comes with a general improvement on the economy.

A passenger, Mr. Jude Emenike said he was delighted that more airlines were now operating from Enugu.



“This is no longer a time we had no choice to make. I am happy that another airline has arrived at this Airport, especially as its base. It will in no small means boost not just the economy of the airport but Enugu State and beyond.



“It’s a good thing and we the passengers are happier for it,” he said with joy.

8 Wild Differences Between The Lamborghini And Ferrari Rivalry
~27.9 mins read
When it comes to hot wheels, there are two brands that come to mind: Lamborghini and Ferrari. But, when put to the test, which brand is best?
 

Ferrari Has More Models (Currently)

When making automobiles, it is important to have a wide variety of options for consumers. Including, but not limited to, family-oriented cars and more sporty alternatives. For brands as exclusive as Ferrari and Lamborghini, though, they have a much more inelastic price range and demand.
Due to this, these businesses take time producing their car. Often times, they do not release successors to previous models until a few years later (Like the Murciélago and Aventador). However, in more recent years, Ferrari has been putting in the work; releasing car after car with more impressive figures each time.

7Lamborghini Focuses More On Road Cars

Although both Ferrari and Lamborghini have a vast array of new, and old, road vehicles, one puts a higher priority on street legal cars than another. Obviously, this is a reference to Lamborghini.

6Lamborghini's Focus On Form

When Lamborghini crafts a new vehicle, it can be described as many things. Nonetheless, "ugly" or "unattractive" is, certainly, none of those adjectives. For millions of car enthusiasts, Lamborghini wins them over with their aesthetics and visuals rather than racing pedigree.
This is not to say that Lamborghini does not make fast cars. On the contrary, actually, as Lamborghinis often break the 200 miles-per-hour barrier and comfortably contend against Porsche, Ferrari, and McLaren. Nevertheless, the hallmark of a true Lamborghini isn't just its logo or power, but the Italian design that goes into every model. To see an example of this, observe the Lamborghini Countach: A car that looked the part, but was as aerodynamic and comfortable as a cinderblock.

5Ferrari's History Begun In Motor Sports

Unlike Lamborghini's pursuit of luxury sports cars during the '60s, Ferrari had a much different start. Even though both companies were brought on by a dream and a love of cars, Ferrari's had a bit of racing in its intentions as well.

4Ferrari Existed Way Before Lamborghini

As mentioned previously, Lamborghini and Ferrari had a very different upbringing. Not only was one more interested in racing than the other, but one had been out way before the other as well. When Lamborghini was founded in 1963, Ferrari had already been in business for about twenty-four years. This extra bit of time gave Ferrari a large market share, and even made Enzo a bit pompous too.
 
 
 

8 Wild Differences Between The Lamborghini And Ferrari Rivalry

When it comes to hot wheels, there are two brands that come to mind: Lamborghini and Ferrari. But, when put to the test, which brand is best?

2Lamborghinis Are More Easily Maintained

For a good part of Lamborghini's early history, the manufacturer most definitely prioritized form over function. Ferrari's used to be the most well-built supercars, until Lamborghini was purchased by Audi group.

1Different Unique Designs Between Brands

The biggest, and most notable, differences between these two rivals isn't always their reliability, performance compared to other companies, and so on, but how they differentiate themselves through innovation, beautiful designs, and cultivating inventions.
Think about it in these terms: As a car enthusiast, does the idea of a Lamborghini Aventador being swapped with the Ferrari 488 to become the Lamborghini 488 and Ferrari Aventador seem right? If nothing was changed but the logo, it still wouldn't be. Not just because you know them as a Ferrari or a Lamborghini, but because each of those two manufacturers are vastly different in terms of vehicle design, power output, inspiration, and so on.
