Claims of new aircraft for Tinubu, Shettima false, says Akpabio

By Jeffrey Agbo

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has dismissed claims that the Senate proposed new aircraft for President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima.

During a condolence visit to Senator Tahir Monguno over the death of his father, Akpabio said the report which quoted him to have proposed new presidential aircraft was from propagandists and fifth columnists, according to a statement on Tuesday by Jackson Udom, his Special Assistant on Print Media.

He said the Senate was focused on delivering legislation that would support actualisation of Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

Akpabio, who expressed satisfaction with the present security situation in Borno, urged Nigerians to continue to pray for the present administration.

His words: “I want to dispel the rumour that you are hearing that the Senate president said he will buy a new plane for the president and his vice, irrespective of the fact that Nigerians are hungry or whatever.

“I never said that. I was actually in Zanzibar, Tanzania. It is the handiwork of propagandists and fifth columnists, who never see anything good in what we are doing.

“Be rest assured, pray for the government, have patience and be assured that the combination of Tinubu and Shettima will bring wealth and prosperity to all.

“I am happy to see that peace has returned to Borno, as a result of the hard work of President Bola Tinubu.

“I want to tell the good of people of Borno to continue to support the administration.”
