The Nigerian Police Command on Monday in Abuja confirmed that gunmen fired shots at the car of the Minister of Aviation, Ms Stella Oduah.
The spokesperson of the command, DSP Altine Daniel, said the incident occurred at about 10 p.m. on Friday
in Abuja. She added that the minister was not in the car when the
incident took place. Daniel, however, said that the incident was
reported to the police on Monday at about 5:30 p.m.
According to her, some metal objects were found in the vehicle which
does not look like the conventional bullet. “The objects will be
subjected to ballistic test,” she said. According to her, investigation
into the incident has begun. Also, confirming the shooting, Special
Adviser to the minister, Mr Joe Obi, said that the attack took place at
the Ministers’ Hill, Maitama in the FCT.
“Fortunately, the minister was not in the car at the time the attack
took place. “An official report has been made to the police and the
police are currently investigating it, ” Obi said. It can be recalled
that Ms Stella Oduah, remains under immense pressure over her role in
the purchase of two N255m luxury cars with many Nigerians calling for
her sack and prosecution. The minister in her defense cited "Protection"
as the basis for acquiring the N225m bullet-proof cars, and not for
luxury
However many Nigerians think that this was stage-managed,do you think so????
