The immediate past Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, has
disclosed that less than N3 billion was expended on the Nigeria Air project.
Sirika disclosed this on Sunday during an Arise Television
interview.
The former minister debunked claims that N85 billion was
spent on the Nigeria Air project.
According to him, the claim is baseless and false.
He explained that the bulk of the expended funds were
channelled into consultancies, salaries, and administrative costs associated
with setting up the national carrier.
The Nigeria Air project has been mired in controversy, as the
Senate and House of Representatives have described it as fraud and a gimmick.
