The Airline Operators of Nigeria, AON, lauded the judiciary on Tuesday for upholding justice and nullifying the purported sale of Nigeria Air to Ethiopian Airlines. The operators said this in a statement signed by its president, Dr Abdulmunaf Sarina, in Lagos.
NAN reported that Justice Ambrose Lewis-Allagoa of the Federal High Court had, on Monday, declared the sale of Nigeria Air to Ethiopian Airlines null and void. Sarina commended the bold and patriotic declarations and orders made by the court. “The bold and patriotic declarations and orders made by the court leave no one in doubt that the entire bidding, approval and so-called unveiling processes of the purported national carrier were nothing other than a sham set up to hoodwink Nigerians.
Lewis-Allagoa also noted that the action was against the Securities and Exchange Commission Nigeria Consolidated Rules & Regulations 2013 . He said the process was against the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission Act, ICAQ Convention, Civil Aviation Act, Public Procurement Act, Concession Regulatory Commission Act 2005, and the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act.
