The ultimatum follows revelations that she arm-twisted a cash-strapped agency, the NCAA, to purchase two armored BMW 760 Li cars for her at highly inflated prices.
OluFamous.Com gathered from a
top source in Abuja that even President Goodluck Jonathan is shocked at
Stella Oduah’s spending of N255m for just two cars but he can’t do
anything due to some reasons.
Anyway, Dino Melaye said his group will embark on series of actions
to force President Jonathan to fire the Mrs. Oduah as a minister of the
Federal Republic of Nigeria as well as order her to return the $1.6
million to the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority, which was forced to buy
the cars.
Dino Melaye said the purchase of the vehicles was done in violation
of the various rules and law guiding such high-level procurement by
government officials, particularly the monetiazation policy of federal
government.
First, Dino Melaye said he is heading to court next Tuesday to force the EFCC to prosecute the Minister.

On the cost of the vehicles, Melaye described them as “unconscionable,”
recalling that the Speaker of House of Reps also purchased two Armored
Mercedes Benz S-600 B7 grade armored cars a year ago for less than
$800,000.
He also disclosed that he had requested for quotations from Germany
that show that the vehicles actually cost less than $200,000 each. Even
then, he stressed, the Minister has no right to purchase the vehicles
for her personal use in the first place.
Stella Oduah is the co-chair of President Jonathan’s main presidential campaign team, Neighbor-2-Neighbor hence she may not be sacked since Jonathan is known to romance corrupt people openly.
