Port Harcourt, once known as the Garden City has made international headlines, unfortunately however it is not for it's aesthetic appeal.

Rather, Port Harcourt's International Airport has emerged the worst in the world sharing the infamous list with other airports like  King Abdulaziz International Airport, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and Beauvais-Tille International Airport, Paris.

The results were gotten after conducting a survey which attracted 26,297 qualifying responses.

Readers were asked to judge facilities in four categories: comfort, conveniences, cleanliness and customer service.
