The House of Representatives Committee on Aviation has called for the suspension of the establishment of Nigeria Air.
It also called for prosecuting those involved in the unveiling of the national carrier by the previous administration, describing the exercise as a fraud.
The resolutions were reached on Tuesday during the committee’s interactive session with some government officials and other relevant bodies in the sector at the National Assembly Complex, Abuja.
The Chairman of the Committee, Nnolim Nnaji (PDP, Enugu), read the resolutions of the Committee at the end of the interaction.
The session was attended by members of the Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON), representatives of the Ministry of Aviation and others.
An aircraft purportedly belonging to the national carrier was unveiled by the immediate past Aviation Minister, Hadi Sirika, at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport premises in Abuja on 26 May.
