The Managing Director of Nigeria Air, Mr. Dayo Olumide says the aeroplane that landed at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja on 26th May 2023, was chartered from Ethiopia.

Mr Olumide said this while fielding questions from the Senate Committee on Aviation, where the Chairperson, Senator Biodun Olujimi expressed displeasure when she said the entire arrangement of Nigeria Air was shrouded in suspicion.
