Question of the day

There is an ingoing investigation into  the   alleged  financial excesses of the Minister of Petroleum Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke. It was   also learnt in Abuja that Alison-Madueke   chartered a third jet for her use, besides the two already in the records of the committee.

The Solomon Olamilekan-led committee is  investigating the expenditure of  N10bn on a Challenger 850 chartered and maintained for  the minister’s use.

Is it Justifiable for a minister to spend billions of naira to charter aircraft?

Who approved the funds?

Was the money appropriated by the National Assembly?

What aspect of our laws allows a minister to fly in chartered aircraft overseas for her private or official trips?
