Nigeria News: Festus Keyamo, Nigeria’s Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, is embroiled in a scandal over misuse of state resources. Allegedly, he bypassed immigration protocols to relocate his American partner Zainab, her mother, and others to Nigeria via Uganda. The lavish relocation included diplomatic shortcuts and public fund diversion.
Key Takeaways:
- Allegations include misuse of Ministry of Aviation’s budget for personal relocation efforts.
- Luxury travel and accommodation were reportedly funded by public money.
