Minister of Transport and former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi has been exposed.
His successor, Governor Nyesom Wike disclosed that;
“When we came into office in 2015, we never had an idea that our plane was in your facility. It was a matter of asking questions before we got the information that Legacy 600 belonging to our state is in RUAG, before General Atomics.”
“This plane was bought in 2003 by the government of Dr Peter Odili, and by 2007, he handed it over to the next government, which was my predecessor’s, now, Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi. While he was in office, by 2012, this plane was brought here. Reasons we do not know.”
“The issue is, why was there no documentation to let the incoming government know that the facility was sent to RUAG for inspection?”
