Opposition lawmakers in the House of Representatives on Wednesday said President Bola Tinubu can use commercial flight if the presidential planes are not available. The lawmakers made the assertion during a debate on the recent breakdown of presidential flights.
The Minority Leader, Kingsley Chinda and Minority Whip, Ali Isa, during a debate on a motion on the Presidential Fleet, said Tinubu should consider commercial flights. Ahmad Satomi, a lawmaker from Borno State, had moved a motion of urgent public importance over the reported breakdown of the plane Tinubu used for the past foreign visit. According to the reports, Tinubu had to use a chartered commercial flight from the Netherlands to Saudi Arabia.
Speaking on the motion, Mr Ali, a PDP lawmaker from Gombe State, said the President should be using commercial flights. Ali’s comments generated applause from the minority bench as many hailed him. Also speaking on the motion, the minority leader, Chinda, stressed that there is nothing wrong with Tinubu taking commercial flights. “I have not seen anything wrong with a public official using commercial flight. The Prime Minister of the UK uses British Airways.
