Bashir Ahmad

Bashir Ahmad, the former aide of the immediate-past president, Muhammadu Buhari has dismissed reports that the Nigeria Air is a fraud.

Ahmad who served as the special assistant on digital communications to Buhari said via his Twitter page, on Tuesday, that all necessary documents required to power the airline have been signed by the Aviation Ministry and operational offices have been opened.

He tweeted; “NigeriaAir is NOT a fraud, the Aviation Ministry has made significant progress towards its realisation.

“Branding unveiled, partnerships and agreements signed, most of the operational certificates issued, and operational offices opened. NigeriaAir will fly to make Nigeria proud.”

Ahmad’s tweet is coming aft the House of Representatives Committee on Aviation’s description of Nigeria Air as a fraud.

The committee also charged the Federal Government to suspend the airline.
