 A Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain, Sunny Onuesoke
has thrown his weight behind Nigeria Minister of Aviation and Aerospace
Development Festus Keyamo on his move to sanitise the aviation industry in the
country.

 

Onuesoke had openly defended Keyamo following recent
criticism by Aviation stakeholders on his recent comment against the alleged
rot in the industry.

The former Delta State gubernatorial candidate stressed that
the Minister will not apologise for his recent statement during an interview
with Channels television on the rots in the industry as demanded by the
Aviation experts.

 

Onuesoke claimed that calls for the minister to apologise
over what they described as demarketing Nigeria’s aviation industry was unnecessary,
saying Keyamo will not apologise because his actions are to save the lives of
Nigerians.

“I support Festus Keyamo’s action. You do not play with
people’s lives. They play too much politics in the Aviation Ministry. He is not
going to apologise because his utterances and actions are to save the lives of
Nigerians. An aeroplane is not something that holds brakes while airborne. Any
plane that is not capable should be grounded like what he did to Dana Air. You
do not have to play politics with the lives of Nigerians. I am supporting
Keyamo for his actions.”

While describing Keyamo’s action as good, Onuesoke urged the
minister to continue with the good work, advising that all aviation activities
need to be in check to improve passengers’ safety.

 

“Continue the good work. Nigerians are with you. Nigerians
should allow him to sanitise the sector because he knows where to begin. How
Dana Airlines still operates in Nigeria baffles me after its abysmal safety
records.

“What does the Aviation stakeholders want him to do? Is it
to cover up the mess in the industry? Before he spoke out, he had seen many
things. That interview was born out of a series of corruption he had seen in
the industry. When the man turns right it is corruption, left it is corruption all
around the aviation industry. His outburst is to save the life of Nigerian air
travellers, “ the PDP Chieftain reiterated.
