Aviation Minister, Stella Oduah To Appear Before Senate

The Minister of Aviation, Ms. Stella Oduah, is scheduled to appear before the senate on Thursday (today) to brief the upper legislative chamber about the state of the aviation industry, particularly the unfortunate crash involving the Associated Airlines flight on October 3.

Oduah was scheduled to appear before the senators last week Thursday but was shifted because Senate President David Mark was not available and he had requested to personally preside over the probe session.

It will be recalled that Oduah could not also appear before the Senate last week Wednesday during plenary because she had sought a last minute permission from the Senators to attend the weekly Federal Executive Council meeting.

Senators might restrict their questions to the general state of the aviation industry and how to avoid future plane crashes.
