Peter Obi Demands Transparency from Tinubu Administration on New Presidential Jet Purchase
Labour Party’s 2024 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration to provide transparency regarding the newly acquired presidential jet and the details of older aircraft being sold.
In a post on his X handle on August 21, Obi urged the government to disclose the cost, age, and operational history of the new jet, emphasizing that Nigerians deserve full transparency and accountability, especially since taxpayer money was used for the purchase.
Obi also requested information on the old jets being disposed of, including their number, age, and reasons for their sale. He stressed that withholding such information would undermine public trust.
The Presidency recently revealed it had acquired an Airbus A330 business jet, which conveyed President Tinubu to France on August 19.
