A former Minister of Aviation in the country, Senator Stella Oduah, has denied knowledge of any probe initiated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on any matter involving her.
The former minister in reaction to reports in the media that she was invited by the anti-graft agency in connection with the N225 million bullet-proof BMW allegedly purchased by her during her time as a minister stated that she knows nothing of the alleged invite.
Speaking on the cars which was reported to have been bought by one of the agencies under the Aviation ministry, the former minister while speaking to News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja yesterday denied connection with the alleged case.
She further added that there was no basis for which the anti-graft agency would have invited her for a probe adding that the vehicle did not belong to her.
She maintained: “To start with, I do not know where any letter on the probe is because nobody has invited me, and as far as I know, there is nothing and there cannot be anything on invitation for purchase of a BMW.
“I did not buy a BMW; I have never bought a BMW. The BMW is a property of the government, and it is still in government care. The car is with the agency that bought it.
“The agency is still using it, and so, why will the car, which belongs to government and in the care of government and being used by government, be an issue for me?”
