NewsOnline Nigeria reports that the contentious Nigeria Air agreement, which was finalized by former Aviation Minister, Hadi Sirika, is being looked into by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
This Nigeria news platform understands that the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, who made this disclosure while speaking on Channels TV’s Politics Today on Wednesday, further detailed that there were no plans to designate a local airline as the national airline.
“The EFCC is investigating that deal, there is a criminal investigation going on. I have called for the report,” he said.
On the final day of the Buhari administration in May, the then-interim Managing Director of Nigeria Air, Capt. Dapo Olumide, had stated that the aircraft used to unveil the nation’s national career was a legally chartered flight from Ethiopian Airlines.
The Senate and House of Representatives Committees on Aviation in Nigeria have both declared the Nigeria Air launch to be a hoax.
