Senator-Godswill-Akpabio

In a recent session of the Senate, Senate President GodsWill Akpabio addressed speculations regarding the potential acquisition of a new presidential jet, affirming that the Senate would entertain such a proposal if formally presented by President Bola Tinubu. Akpabio clarified that despite media reports, there has been no official request for the purchase of a presidential aircraft.

“We care about the president and we care about the Nigerian people. We will approve things that will benefit the Nigerian people,” Akpabio stated during the plenary. He emphasized the Senate’s commitment to improving living standards and addressing the operational needs of the presidency, including repairs or replacements of essential equipment like aircraft.

Akpabio dismissed preemptive criticisms and referred to them as anticipated blackmail, asserting that the Senate would responsibly evaluate any future proposals related to the presidential fleet based on national interests and governance needs.

While addressing concerns about safety and functionality, Akpabio highlighted instances from other countries where defective aircraft had led to tragic incidents, underscoring the Senate’s role in ensuring operational safety and efficiency within the presidential fleet.

The Senate leader’s remarks follow earlier discussions within the Senate about alleged propaganda aimed at influencing public opinion regarding the purchase of presidential assets. Akpabio reassured the public of the Senate’s commitment to transparency and accountability in handling such matters.

As the debate over potential upgrades to the presidential fleet continues, Akpabio concluded that the Senate remains vigilant and prepared to evaluate any future requests that align with national interests and governance priorities.
