The Ebonyi State Government said Chuba Okadiggo International Airport has not been converted into a worship centre, after Commissioner Ikeuwa Omebeh acknowledged staff hold communal prayers before work but denied any organised church service, and noted a viral video of a church service was claimed to be AI‑generated.
Civil society spokesperson Charles Otu alleged a church had taken over the airport for midweek and Sunday services and claimed only private charter flights carrying the governor and his wife land there, while Commissioner Valentine Okike‑Uzo said Thursday prayers are routine for staff.
