President Jonathan
... Sets up three-man panel
President Goodluck Jonathan on Wednesday set up a three-man administrative panel to probe the reported purchase of two bullet proof vehicles at N255 million for the Minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah.
Briefing State House correspondents at the end of Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting presided over by President Jonathan, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, Dr. Reuben Abati, said the three-man committee is to be chaired by a former Head of Service, Isa Bello Saleh.


Other members are the National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki and Dick Iruenaevere. The office of the NSA will serve as the committee’s secretariat.
The panel, Abati said, is to ascertain whether the purchase followed due process, the main purpose for which they were purchased and any other related issues.
He said the panel is expected to submit its report within two weeks.
