A new SaharaReporters
investigation reveals that the
National Airspace Management
Agency (NAMA), another agency
under the Ministry of Aviation,
also purchased four Toyota
Tundra vehicles for the Minister,
Mrs. Stella Oduah.
Nigerians are currently up in
arms about two armored cars
purchased for her by another
agency, the Nigeria Civil Aviation
Authority, at the scandalous rate
of N225million, and many are
calling for her to be fired.
The Tundras are in addition to
four stretch limousine cars that
were allegedly purchased for the
movement of VIPs.
Saharareporters obtained the
photos of the Limousines, which
were parked at the headquarters
of the Total Radar Coverage of
Nigeria (TRACON)
grounds in Abuja today.
Efforts to get the NAMA
spokesperson, Supo Atobatele, to
comment on the fresh allegations
proved abortive as he claimed he
was driving and could not speak
on the wheel. When later
confronted with the facts, Mr.
Atobatele denied the existence of
the stretch limos claiming that
NAMA is a “professional agency”
that provides navigational aid to
aircrafts flying within Nigeria’s
airspace. He hung up and
switched off his phone when
further told that Saharareporters
had the photos.
NAMA’s CEO, Nnamdi Udo,
reportedly made the purchase
and ‘donation’ of the Tundras to
the Minister in June 2013. The
four Limousines were received in
the third week of June but have
never been put to use.
Last week after SaharaReporters
revealed the purchase of two
BMW armored cars for the
Minister, her aides and later the
Managing Director of the Nigeria
Civil Aviation Authority, Fola
Akinkuotu, claimed the vehicles
were meant for VIP movement,
but a former lawmaker and
leader of Anti-Corruption
Network, Dino Melaye, told
SaharaReporters today that it is
the duty of the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs to transport
international VIPs in Nigeria.
He also revealed that the most
important Aviation inspectors are
teams from the ICAO who already
have a Nigerian office which
handles all their transactions.
SaharaReporters could not
confirm if the NAMA limos are
armored. It is also unclear why
NAMA, an agency believed to be
cash-strapped, would need
stretch limos that are normally
used by celebrities, to ferry
international VIPS.
Meanwhile, a high-level source
has confirmed to
SaharaReporters that the Total
Radar Coverage of Nigeria, which
Mrs. Oduah brags about as one
of
her achievements in office,
provides epileptic service.
Because it often breaks down,
the objective of establishing a
safer national airspace is said to
have been compromised. Foreign
airlines are said to rely on their
built in navigational equipment
for air safety within the Nigerian
airspace.
