The House of Reps has said that the Nigeria Air project launch at the twilight of ex-President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration was a big fraud which will not be swept under the carpet.

The project has drawn the ire of Nigerians and now Chairman of the House Committee on Aviation, Nnolim Nnaji, has lambasted the entire exercise as a shame.

This is coming after stakeholders in the transaction between the Federal Government and Ethiopian Airlines denied knowledge of the project.

On Friday, May 26, an aircraft adorned in Nigeria Air colours landed at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport as a show of the achievement the President Buhari government.

The arrival of the plane was celebrated by the former Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika as his ministry’s efforts to revive Nigeria’s national career.

In recent development, members of the national assembly have seen through the irregularities and charade in the purported launch of the aircraft.

Shockingly the management of the Nigeria Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) disclosed to the House Committee on Aviation that the aircraft bearing Nigerian colours was on a chartered flight to Nigeria.
