## Description

Bacita Airstrip lies a few kilometres south-west of Bacita in Nigeria's Kwara State, at roughly 150 metres elevation, and dates back to the Nigerian Sugar Company mill founded in 1964 — the reason the town was once known as Bacita Sugar. Available sources list the strip as closed today; cargo handling, scheduled service, a customs post and ground handling are unconfirmed and in practice absent. Air freight for Kwara and the Niger corridor runs through Ilorin International (ILR), about 80 km to the south-west, or via Abuja (ABV) and Lagos (LOS) for international consignments.
