The Special Assistant on Digital Communications to former president Muhammadu Buhari, Bashir Ahmad has debunked the accusation on Nigeria Air, reiterating that it is not a fraud.
The ex-president’s aide aired his view via Twitter.
He noted that the Aviation Ministry has signed most of the necessary documents regarding Nigeria Air, adding that most of the operational certificates and offices have been issued and opened.
He insisted that the accused Nigeria Air will fly to make the country proud.
According to him, ” “NigeriaAir is NOT a fraud, the Aviation Ministry has made a significant progress towards its realization.
“Branding unveiled, partnerships and agreements signed, most of the operational certificates issued, and operational offices opened. NigeriaAir will fly to make Nigeria proud.”
His views came on the premise of the House of Representatives Committee on Aviation describing Nigeria Air as a fraud.
The house reached a consensus on Tuesday following an investigative hearing on the airline.
It is also worthy of note that the Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika launched the airline shortly before exiting office.
However, the House had enjoined the Federal Government to suspend its establishment.
