DeleteB-R-E-A-K-I-N-G News!!! Senate
Releases Stella Oduah's CV.
The Nigerian Senate have
released the Curriculum Vitae
(Resume) which Princess Stella
Oduah the Aviation Minister
used in securing her
appointment. According to the
release, they confirm that the
Aviation Minister's CV was in
line with her claims, against
what some media outfits have
been writing in the last few
days. They warned that the
online news outlets Sahara
Reporters and Premium Times
should stop giving out false and
malicious information that
might lead to breakdown of law
and order. Sahara reporters
have already accepted
misleading Nigerians and still
refuse to apologize for their
malicious allegations and
frivolous claims..... Linda oya verify and clear this mess once and for all.
