More details emerged yesterday on why the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) resorted to chartering private jets for use by the Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke and other top officials of the corporation.
According to sources, the NNPC is empowered by law to own aircraft and actually had two jets in its fleet before 2012 before they became inoperative.
The sources, who spoke against the backdrop of the decision by the House of Representatives to probe the minister for allegedly spending N10 billion on private jet charter over a two-year period, said the two aircraft became unserviceable from 2012, when they started to malfunction and efforts to secure new ones had been stalled.
