Former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, has dragged President Bola Tinubu over an alleged purchase of a presidential jet worth a whopping $100 million and a further investment of an additional $50 million for its customisation.
Sowore who made the allegations via his X handle on Monday night said it was quite insensitive for the President to spend such an amount on the purchase of a presidential jet while Nigerians were going through unbearable hardship, hunger and poverty.
The activist also criticised the purchase, emphasising the disparity between the government’s spending and the country’s economic challenges.
“While they are telling you to ‘exercise patience,’ @officialABAT already bought a $100m Presidential Jet and configured or reconfigured it with some $50 million and it is ready for delivery!,” Sowore alleged in the post.

“The jet is an A330-200 initially christened VP-CAC and is now registered as 5N-FGA.
“This was not in the annual budget; they can’t pay minimum wage for workers but could afford $150m for a private jet.
“Students have to obtain loans to go to college, but they could afford to approve billions for hajj even as the money ended up being stolen.
