OduahGate: President Jonathan sacks Aviation Minister; Stella Oduah and 3 others

 President Goodluck Jonathan today Wednesday February 12th, sacked the embattled Minister of Aviation, Ms. Stella Oduah.
Ms Oduah whose approval for the purchase of two bullet-proof cars for N255m caused public outrage in the country with many Nigerians calling for her removal and prosecution,will now be focusing on her Neighbour to Neighbour political campaign organization which she founded a few years ago.

Others affected were Caleb Olubolade (Police Affairs); Godsday Orubebe (Niger Delta); and Yerima Ngama (State, Finance).


“They were dropped, they did not resign,” a cabinet source told news correspondent.

Heard the other ministers were dropped for political reasons. All three of them are planning to run for governorship positions in their various states. Orubebe is running in Delta, Yerima in Yobe and Olubolade in Ekiti State, all under PDP.
