When will such madness stop in Nigeria? While Nigerian Universities are on strike for almost four months but one Minister is busy buying cars worth 255 Million naira and While Nigerian universities are closed, First Lady collects Honorary Doctorate from a functioning university in South Korea. Nigeria has misplaced her priorities. It is glaring that until we do what is right, the country will not flourish. It’s barbaric. A dance of shame. It is a display of stupidity of our present leadership. At this time when the future of our youth is on hold, an underperforming minister is spending the collective wealth of the country for her benefit. If she feels her life is in danger, she ought to resign and return home. I’m also surprised that the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority acted in such irresponsible manner. Nigerians are not fools and this act of stupidity should not be taken lightly. Mrs. Stella Oduah ‘s aviation ministry got two cars worth N225m recently while in the last two years over 200 innocent lives perished due to air mishap caused by either human or machine errors in the ministry. I want to believe that this is not needed at this point in time. We misplace our priorities a lot in this country. How can a house be on a fire and the next thing to do is to be making drainages? The ministry should have spent taxpayers’ money to overhaul the aviation ministry by organising thorough mandatory professional trainings for her personnel and getting good equipment needed in the sector. But unfortunately, it appears that the sector is suffering from attitudinal problems. The purchase of the cars is not the right thing to do now considering the high rate of unemployment and poverty in the country. There is even a lingering face-off with the Academic Staff Union of Universities hinged on monetary matters. Besides, as the minister of aviation, she should be more concerned about the state of the aviation industry which has been facing so many challenges in recent times. Let her resign from office and face the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission immediately.
