‘It’s a Huge Scam’ – PDP Slams Nigerian Air Launch

 


Minister of Aviation Hadi Sirika, at the Farnborough International Airshow on Wednesday unveiled the logo and mane of the new national carrier to the delight of many Nigerians.
But in its reaction, spokesman for the opposition PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, said the federal government is trying to deceive Nigerians with a “non-existent” airline, TheCable writes.
He said it is unfortunate that, “not having any development project to parade, Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) have now resorted to international kite-flying aimed at hoodwinking unsuspecting Nigerians.”


“Is it not comical that while other nations are unveiling and rolling out real planes, the Buhari administration, in a most hilarious manner, is ‘unveiling’ drawings of an airplane, name, logo and imaginary routes of a non-existent fleet, as our national carrier, in faraway London?” the party queried.
“Apart from drawings of airplanes, there are no structures to indicate that a new airline, billed to commence operation in December this year, is being set up; there are no offices, no recruitment of personnel and no form of ground activity anywhere in the country.
“Does it not smack of pure scam that less than six months to commence operations, the supposed new airline has not even started the process of licensing, even when it takes a minimum of six months for a new airline to obtain air operating license and three months to develop its manuals?”
The PDP also said the federal government had been unable to list any private investor it has gone into negotiation or signed any form of deal with in the said project.
According to the party, “the entire project is a huge scam and that the five percent government funding is a direct ploy by the cabal at the Buhari presidency to siphon billions of naira, using a phantom project.”
“If the Buhari administration is not on a fantasy trip to beguile Nigerians and pave further ways for its humongous corruption, it should have focused on our existing national carrier structures in addition to three operating airlines, already taken over by the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria(AMCON).”
