Announcing this Monday during the daily briefing of the presidential task force on COVID 19, the Minister of Aviation Hadi Sirika said that the flight was approved for a different reason-to convey a Judge from Lagos to Abuja and back on an official assignment, but that the ministry was misled because the Airline instead airlifted Naira Marley and a former BBN housemate to Abuja.

Besides grounding the Airline, the flight crew will be punished, he said.

“We approved a flight indeed, but not for any musician. The approved flight was to convey a Justice on official assignment but ExecuJet illegally used it to convey the Musician to Abuja for a concert. We have suspended Execujet’s operations indefinitely. It will also be fined”, Sirika said.
