Former Nigeria's minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah
Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Wednesday quizzed a former Minister of Aviation, Ms. Stella Oduah, for over five hours at their Idiagbon House headquarters in Abuja.
Investigation revealed that Oduah arrived at Idiagbon House around 10am and left at 3.30pm after being granted a provisional bail.
An EFCC source said the former minister was asked questions and thereafter asked to make a statement that could aid the commission’s ongoing investigation into the purchase of two BMW bulletproof cars by the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority at a controversial sum of N255m.
The Intelligence and Special Operations Section of the commission was instructed to ensure an in-depth investigation of the scandal.
It was further gathered that one Mr. Chike of ‘Team 3’ of the Intelligence and Special Operations Section led the team of investigators that grilled Oduah.
