Photo: Tinubu Has Already Bought $100 Million Presidential Jet, Ready For Delivery – Sowore

The African Action Congress, (AAC) presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Omoyele Sowore, has alleged that President Bola Tinubu has already acquired a $100 million presidential jet.

NATURENEX recalls that a committee of the House of Representatives recently recommended the purchase of a new presidential jet for President Tinubu and the Vice President, Kashim Shettima, noting that the aircraft in the Presidential Fleet are dysfunctional.

However, the proposal generated controversy online and was widely rejected by many Nigerians.

In a post via his X handle on Monday evening, the two-time presidential candidate claimed Tinubu had already purchased the jet, and it is ready for delivery.

Sowore berated Tinubu over the government’s inability to pay minimum wage to workers, criticising it for spending $1oo million for a private jet.

He said via X, “While they are telling you to ‘exercise patience’ @officialABAT already bought a $100m Presidential Jet and configured or reconfigured it with some $50million and it is ready for delivery! The jet is an A330-200 initially christened VP-CAC is now registered as 5N-FGA.

“This was not in the annual budget, they can’t pay minimum wage for workers but could afford $150m for a private jet, students have to obtain loans to go to college but they could afford to approve billions for hajj even as the money/ies ended up being stolen. Fight we MUST!”
