Nigeria Air: We’ll Still Drag FG To Court Over Alleged $8m Spent So Far – George Uboh

The George Uboh Whistleblowers Network (GUWN), has said it would still drag the Ministry of Aviation to court over $8m usd spent so far on the suspended Nigeria Air Project.

BigPen Online recalls that GUWN’s Chairman George Uboh had earlier filed a Freedom of Information (FOI) request to the Aviation Ministry requesting details of the transaction on the Nigeria Air Project.

“Please recall the series of communications between GUWN and Ministry of Transportation-Aviation in which GUWN requested certain pertinent information germane to Nigeria Air, MoT-Aviation”.

In response to GUWN’s request, the Ministry had in a 3-page letter made some clarification on the deal, a development which prompted George Uboh and Goddy Ike to visit the Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission (ICRC), the agency that granted the certificate on the Outline Business Case (OBC) for consideration by the Federal Executive Council (FEC).

Uboh, said he also appeared on TV and Radio programmes over the matter even as GUWN was about to file a suit to annul Nigeria Air for not serving the public’s interest.

According to him, despite the cancellation of the deal on Wednesday, September 19, 2018, GUWN will still drag MoT-Aviation to court on the over $8m usd spent so far.
