Indications emerged Sunday night that the
Minister of Aviation, Ms. Stella Oduah, is currently fighting with both teeth
and tongue in order to save her job.
It was learnt that the troubled Minister
within the last days had been seeking private audience with President Goodluck
Jonathan for one on one chat over the ongoing crisis in the aviation sector.
Sources said that Miss Oduah was spotted at
the Presidential Villa in Abuja during the weekend looking so troubled and
shattered, following the calls by Nigerians for her immediate removal over the
acquisition of two BMW bulletproof cars for her official use.
A close insider, who was present during
Oduah’s visit to the Villa, told Punch that she “wanted to explain herself to
the President, who like every Nigerian, was embarrassed by the media reports
and the evidence of the purchase of the two cars at an outrageous sum of ₦255m.”
