Nollywood actress and ROK TV boss Mary Remy Njoku has stirred fresh conversation after openly questioning the condition of Osubi Airport in Warri, Delta State. In a candid social media post that quickly drew attention, the media entrepreneur expressed deep disappointment with the facility, describing her recent experience in blunt terms that many found both humorous and pointed.
Addressing the people of Warri directly, Njoku began with a familiar local saying.
“Hello, my Warri people! You know that saying: ‘Warri no dey carry last’? I believe it a lot!” she wrote.
She then posed a direct question that set the tone for the rest of her message.
“But before I talk my mind, I want to ask one question first. Where is your REAL airport? Because the last time I came, Air Peace took me and dropped me in one ‘motorpark’!”
Njoku made clear she considers Warri far too significant a city to settle for what she saw.
“And I KNOW Warri is too important a city to have an airport that looks like a motor park! So, where is your REAL airport?” she asked.
She was careful to frame her remarks as personal observation rather than an attack on any official body.
“Please o, I’m only asking a question. Don’t come for me. I am NOT Delta State Government! Neither am I the Minister of aviation.”
The actress and producer did not stop at the description. She challenged the popular slogan associated with the city, suggesting the reality on the ground lagged behind the boast.
“Every time, ‘Warri no dey carry last! Warri no dey carry last!’ It’s like this ‘no dey carry last’ is only lip service o!”
Njoku added that the situation left her genuinely upset.
“But honestly, you guys broke my heart. Warri deserves so much better. Something needs to be done about that airport, and many other things I noticed. But let us focus on the airport first. I have so much love for y’all.”
Njoku, who founded ROK Studios in 2013 and continues to play a leading role in African entertainment content after its acquisition by Canal+, has built a reputation for speaking her mind on issues that affect everyday experiences. Her latest comments arrive at a time when infrastructure standards remain a frequent topic of public discussion across Nigeria. By mixing affection for Warri with frank criticism, she highlighted a gap between the city’s importance and the state of one of its key entry points.
The post has sparked reactions ranging from agreement that the airport needs urgent attention to calls for authorities to respond. Her message ends on a note of care for the people of Warri while keeping the focus firmly on the need for improvement at the airport.
