JONATHAN’S PANEL YET TO START PROBE OF ODUAH’S BULLET PROOF CARS

The panel set up by President Goodluck Jonathan to investigate the purchase of two bullet proof BMW cars bought at the rate of N255 million for the Minister of Aviation Stella Adaeze Oduah by the Nigerian Civil
Aviation Authority (NCAA) is yet to start work a week after it was set up.
Jonathan had given the panel two weeks to submit its report.
Reports say that the embattled minister had directed the NCAA to purchase the cars for her last August.
But Daily Trust gathered last night that the President who is away on pilgrimage in Israel only made a pronouncement naming the members without giving them any official correspondence authorising them to conduct the probe.
With one week before the date for the submission of its report, only on Monday were letters given to members of the panel chaired by Isa Sali Bello with the National Security Adviser Sambo Dasuki and Dick Iruenebere as members.
The letters were signed by Secretary to the Government of the Federation Anyim Pius Anyim but attempts to get his spokesman Sam Nwaobasi to explain the delay were not successful as he neither picked telephone calls nor replied text messages sent by our reporter.
